It certainly sucks that you got bamboozzled as you call it. If the physical appearance bothers you, there are a lot of well documented stories of 'Mother Magic' on this site. Well worth the $ if cosmetics are important to you.
However if it plays and sounds great like a 22 yr old aged top should on a legend, the marks and blemishes are simply character, and in a few yrs it will make great conversation. Maybe it will inspire you to write a song about it, and do the 'Legend' name proud. |

There is justice in the world.
Now the question is does anyone here have a 12 string they are selling? |

I'm glad for you.
Next time, be more careful.

As long as your not trying to bottom feed, I'll bet that some kind of 12 will show up for sale around here soon. |
