Ridiculous Ebay auction...

Post by Le Chat Noir » Thu Dec 01, 2011 10:06 am

Road Worn SG Guitar

So, taking a 200 quid Epiphone G400, dropping a pickup and bridge in it then attacking it with an orbital sander suddenly doubles its value....? :lol: Nice try...

But it says it's very rare...

It looks like the extra-cheap bolt-on neck G-310 model to me.

I think you're right! Which makes it worth less than 1/4 of what he's asking, even before the relicing... I guess he really feels he did an amazing job there... :roll:

Also, did anyone catch the "it'll be in your hands 48hrs after paypal clears" statement. I'd love to know how he guarantees a 48 hour shipment. Surely, he meant, it will be shipped within 48 hours, or this guy is a complete moron.

Perhaps he's planning to just tie it to the bumper of the neck van that's heading in vaguely in the right direction and let it drag along the motorway for some extra relicing ;)

I certainly am not hatin' on the poor guitar itself, as a lefty I have a place in my heart for all left handed guitars... I just get annoyed at their stupid owners sometimes ;) Particularly the righty Hendrix/Cobain fans who seem to think it's a good idea to butcher lefties by converting them to righties.... sacrilege! ;)
