Would some of you experts kindly cast your eyes over this add and see if it looks okay, seems very cheap which is ringing alarm bells.

Price is stupid. Description is cut and paste rubbish instead of being specific about this particular guitar. Steer clear.

Haaaa cheers mate thought so but I do like a bargain.
While ya there what do you think of my pimped Sessionette I knocked together last week :)

If it seems too good to be true...then it probably isn't!

I would avoid!

It seems too good to be true. The decals on the back of the headstock look like they're at the wrong angle as does the small one on the front.

£550.00 for genuine custom shop blackie? No way.

Price wise its waaaay too cheap, but I am struggling with this one. The transfers do look a bit dodgy ('original contour body' esp), but someone has done a lot of work - serial number, Cert of Authenticity and correct/detailed case candy etc, for just £550. He aint making much, and as I say gone through a lot of time and effort. The build date workshop paper is at 2/19/09 (correct American order - month, day, year).
Anyone who goes to this amount of detail to build a fake, would know the secondhand value of a mint Blackie. This is what doesnt make sense.

Exactly what I thought.
A lot of work for £550, as the guitar is going to be picked up by a guitarist shelling out that sort of money then fake or not it needs to be a half decent guitar in the first place to stand a chance of someone falling for it!!
If it was a few hundred more I could maybe understand but a hell of a lot of trouble to go to ripping someone off for such a small amount.

Who knows if those pics are even genuine? Does he actually own that guitar?

Was this a conversion of a 1x12 into a 2x12?

Yes it was,I have been using it for a while but preferred it with and extension cab, I know you are a fan of these amps also.

If its not too far for you to go, then check it out. The ad suggests its a 100 guitar collection being broken down - who knows the story behind it? If it isnt as the ad states i.e pics aint genuine etc - then you can walk away. If it is, well thats when your problems start, and some questions need answering.
