I got a heads up tonight from a member about a Craigs listing that they thought I would like: how right they were...Here is what Brown will be delivering soon to SW VA:









This will be a great addition to the -6p family and I am happy to finally add this guitar to the stable. It is in near mint condition and so is the case. Here are the twins awaiting their new sibling:



I'll post a full report and new pic's when it arrives...

Now there's a man with a passion, or is it obsession? ;) Either way pretty cool!

See, all the reason for you to get rid of that crummy 87' Collectors, you're gonna run out of room.
HA HA HA HA
Very pretty guitar.

Umm, that last post was a hint....
Very pretty guitar though.
(yooooou don't want the 87 any more)
It'll look really nice along with the other two. (So what? Trade the 87 for Michael's 88)
(Just kidding, no, wait, no I'm not! Hey! This subliminal thing got messed up somehow. Now I'm confused..)
To heck with it, still a pretty guitar Mike.
HA HA HA HA (Seriously, you don't want the 87 any more, it is suddenly ugly to you and you can't wait to get it out of your house. You have an overpowering urge to obtain an 87 Collector's Series but you ONLY want serial number 1593. Dang! I think that's the s/n on mine..)

Congrats Mike! Will you dress them in matching outfits, or let them find their own unique personalities?

I like the -6p white pearl just fine: like many siblings, they're similar in style but unique in functionality...and I don't have to put these through college...

I saw that one myself, but I'm glad you beat me to it. (Would have been a little too much explaining to do.)

Congrats! :D

I became interested in a pearl white top model about a year ago and almost pulled the trigger on several ME models. I was particularly impressed with pearl white combined with the abalone purfling and epi detailing. I even considered asking Al to spec out an SSB custom in this color configuration and possibly with a Dimeloa boost button, but then got distracted by some amps. Such a guitar still remains on the "list," although I'm not sure it is possible.
