Presumably it is stable. But the modder didn't know that at the time

Agree. I have a Kramer Duke, which is quite capable of maiming your drummer if not handled carefully. And that's not even pointed.

I wouldn't want to drill the neck like that, myself; four holes across the top of the neck, positioned just right for a crack to propagate, and with the four original strings putting tension on the area. Trouble waiting to happen.

Tres Chicas, 'Bloom, Red and the Ordinary Girl'. Pleasant enough if you like that sort of thing, but one of them is Tonya Lamm ex Hazeldine, so I was hoping for something more.

I suspect it's a Hohner, but I can't really pin down why I think that.

... plus the cost of the forklift. No, not me.

In case of confusion, here;'s John's other feedback thread:

I bought some strings from John. Couldn't have gone better. I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks John PS: He has two feedback threads. The other one is here:

Presumably he had the contents at some point?

I wouldn't have noticed it unless you'd told me it was there, TBH.

Indeed. You have to wonder what they're thinking about, when they choose names.

Owww

Gareth sold me some DB bits and bobs. Quick and clean deal, all well. This is the second time we've dealt and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again. Thanks Gareth

Somebody has to, I suppose.

If he can't be bothered to write it, I can't be bothered to read it.

In school I played cello. Stopped that when I was 17 due to other things. I noticed, in my 40s, I'd spent my entire adult life thinking of myself as "musical" without playing a note. A friend of mine had guitar, wanted to play with someone. I knew I wasn't interested in the lead guitar widdling and that I preferred the lower end of the scale. I might have been a rhythm player if I'd tried to learn on an electric, I suppose.

Yes. Mind the fretless neck, though. And, "original hard case", I think.

You're not the only one!

What he doesn't know is the number of people (like me) who take one look and go "Why would I want to deal with this guy??!" and avoid him like the plague thereafter.

That seller seems to run a 125% markup on all sales. This item, maybe 250%.

Only those?
