Here's my guesses:
A) Because the production effort was nothing like the real "Q" concept?
B) Because the instrument was no more fascinating than the less expensive models already available?
C) The Buying Public is fickle?
D) Everybody was broke after buying "Relic'd" Fenders?
E) An Alien conspiracy prompted by Ron Paul? |

KA You go to "my profile" choose "edit profile" and go to the field "signature" where you can write whatever you want displayed as your signature in your posts. |

| is it a natural(grey) graphite cross-weave or cobalt blue? not that I have a price range, but would be interested in it if it's not too far out there.. and you find a number you could live with.. I'm sure there's more than a few here that would like to own one.
there weren't many made, 12s are rarer, and have only seen a couple for sale in the past 4 years.

| Meg's is pretty cool...and the food's good.. as well as the selection of ales, beers, and whiskeys...
the wife and I are down there every now and then.. usually on lighter nights.
St Paddy's there is NUTS!! and downtown Melbourne is rocking that night... our daughter Kelly is the one always wearing the full length bright green mohair coat and top hat..
