...if it does sell, I hope you don't regret it later War Eagle |

A guitar that is as close the the original slotheads as possible thirty years later, postings looking for the 47RI, and the result is bottom feeding low-ball offers.
This is like someone going up to Mark (MIB) as he is sitting in his Boxster and saying "I'll give you $2K for your Volkswagen". |

@#%&*!@$ That's cheap! I have an $8.49/day Starbucks habit. Still leaves me about a grand shy at the end of the year tho.
That's a beautiful guitar, and one of my personal "dream guitars", and it's a great price. Wish it was within my means. :rolleyes: |

TJ, this might be a good one for you to break that 2K barrier on! |

Location: Sydney, Australia | If I had that rule, I'd never buy lottery tickets. This is about as big as it gets here. I think I'd be comfortable with $50 mil. Anymore than that and you start buying stupid things like helicopters. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Sorry, War Eagle, about preempting your thread, but I just thought of my lottery story.
One of the first big winners was a young single blonde from Boise. Her first installment from the $83 million went to a red Porsche. It was parked in front of the gym I was going to at the time and all the guys were looking at it as I walked in. One of them asked if I saw it and I said, "Yeah, I've got one of those, just older." When he said I should have seen the blonde that got out of it, I said, "Yeah, I've got one of those, just older." |

And Stephen, I agree, this would be "the one" to break the 2k barrier, but, (and it's a big butt), I am tapped out now after my talk with Al and the CA I have ordered. |

Location: Sydney, Australia | That's a really good decision. When I'm flush with cash in a few years time I'll try and convince you that, while it was the right decision not to sell back then, selling it to me now, is obviously the right decision for now. Just get ready for the slippery logic. |
