Location: Campbell River, British Columbia | I think the 'red knob' is a pick holder.
Takes a whole stack of picks....for those who sweat and drop a lot.
A strip of masking tape on the mikestand with pickups stuck to it works better, IMO. Or, when your old and play slower, keep a pocketfull.... |

Location: Las Vegas, Nevada | Questions for seller: "Were you drunk when you listed this? High? Fell out of tree? Crashed your Corvair? Looking for born this morning bidders? Meant to comment on this before, but better late than never. I am surprised that he does not have a reserve. OK, I'm done. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Yeah, sure, right .... blah blah blah. Just admit you made a typo !!!! Hey, I'm just funnin with you. Some people call me a wise ass and I have no idea why ....
Now here is the irony - In the Mar-Tay-Gib-ings world shouldn't a mint example of a companys new body design (ss cutaway bowl), and first ever bard board finish be worth $2000 ??? It's an historical instrument.

Location: CT | When it was still 3K, I emailed him and told him these usually sell for 500.00 or less. Maybe thats why he only wants 2K now. Incidentally, these are a bargain at 500 or less. Hand selected spruce, A brace, Ivory neck binding, like the old Custom Legend (but ss.bowl)which is why I got one(for 450.00). |
