Could be...for some people, the chance at a slothead justifies dealing with a crook.

Twice, Hector violated eBay...when the auction finally ended, he violated his contract with eBay and refused to sell.

Personally, this guitar will always be tainted. As well the buyer knowing that the guitar had been contractually sold.

Does anyone know where this guitar(s) wound up going to? An OFC member?

Sam, actually two - the -7 in the eBay auction and the -8 that had binding damage.

Understand that both were sold.

Hi,

As you probably know, Marcel's original #37 Slothead is in France. It's surely the only one to be in France and maybe in Europe???
Here is a nice pic of the #37 from around 1978:



I know that all the Adamas custom made for Marcel were Slotheads.
Do you know if the factory had made other custom slotheads like this one???



Jérôme :)

Nice pic of Marcel and #37. You did not have to say it was from the 70's. Get a load of that leisure suit!!!! With a polka-dot shirt no less.

I like the big Adamas "prop" in the background of the bottom pic . . . reminds me of the of the "pre-concert scene on the stage" from the movie "A Mighty Wind":

". . Now, are these the "actual" instruments here?? . . . why are they "flat" on the back?? . . . . "


Hector . . . . yeah, . . . . . . .
