can't say that i do.

love this line in the ad:

"there is clear coat dripping along the side but they are smooth and actually add the the guitars uniqueness."

winny pooh · January 9th, 2008, 03:25 PM

Is this a prank listing???

odiemann · January 9th, 2008, 03:25 PM

I wonder if the caps really won't have any effect on the sound? He sounds very experienced. If only it were red!

Flat357 · January 9th, 2008, 03:26 PM

Hope i'm not standing on anyones toes , but I wouldn't give anyone $4 for that piece of junk , nevermind the $400 asking price .
Is that guy for real ?

I guess I will look for poor craftsmanship on my next guitar purchase to add to the "uniqueness". Of course, with all the bottle caps, who would even notice a little clear coat drip?

Durtdog · January 9th, 2008, 05:30 PM

So, you guys don't think there's a big market for my belly button lint Telecaster?

PMC70 · January 9th, 2008, 05:30 PM

Aw cmon...50 beercaps and some epoxy really does make a $125 laminate guitar worth $450. The funniest part is that the listing shows 2 offers of $425 that weren't taken. I suspect the seller had something to do with these offers hehe. But you know....he's sold others for 6 and 7 hundred so the many who want this better get on it.

Hilarious

CDKopf · January 9th, 2008, 05:45 PM

No thanks - I got an old POS nylon string guitar, and Im sure I'll have enough beer bottle caps by the end of this weekend, some DEFT left over from my last project... Don't worry I'll only list mine for $350

e-merlin · January 9th, 2008, 05:54 PM

Guess who I wouldn't send my amp to for a cap job?

giginthesky · January 9th, 2008, 06:02 PM

well, in his defense, that's probably something i would do after drinking 50 beers.

kovachian · January 9th, 2008, 06:03 PM

I did something like that to an old acoustic only I used pennies. The guitar used to have a dark copper patina now it's all turquoise! It leaves the weird alkaline smell on my arm when I play it too. It sure as hell ain't worth anywhere close to $425 though, that crackhead with the bottlecap guitar is dreaming.

Flat357 · January 9th, 2008, 06:26 PM

Now if the bottle caps were attatched to full bottles of beer ?

Pete Galati · January 9th, 2008, 06:29 PM

Ugh...

I've done some bad things to guitars, but I don't feel so bad about it now!

JimiBryant · January 9th, 2008, 06:42 PM

fugly!!!

51tele · January 9th, 2008, 06:50 PM

But he did say "zero cap vibration"-------now we're talking a whole different league

Whoa! I think that guitar came through a pawn shop here in Sioux Falls. Or one just like it.

Jimi I think your signature line says it all and is the perfect response to this abomination. Then again fugly fits well too.

O- Fender · January 10th, 2008, 08:08 AM

Why would someone make a guitar look like it fell into the recycling bin?

No I still have that guitar but I'm not surprised to learn that my idea wasn't very unique.

unclearty · January 10th, 2008, 03:31 PM

It just shows ta go ya how little I knew about acoustic guitars....I didn't even know you COULD do a cap job on one!
