Ya know, those guitars had to end up somehwere. Why not in someones hands,or neck as in this case.

Unusual claims require unusual proof. To fetch that price the provenance is going to have to be air tight.

The dumbass thinks he's Rambo. He's probably gonna end up getting beheaded over in Pakistan.

Ebay auctions as performance art! The Ebay auction equivalent of a bottle of Dr. Brommers- that's freakin' sweet. Tremo's right though, he's gonna get his spaceship-riding rear end handed to him if he manages to get to Pakistan.

Without it, it's just another repaired '67 SG Special.
