There's something in my head (besides those voices that always are telling me to kill kill kill...)  that it might be good practise to have people say something like "as usual no affiliation", because that automatically tells me that the posting is for info rather than for economic reasons...  but I can be convinced either way.....

Man, he takes such great photos!

I like that guitar, but if I was inclined to buy a 70s Jag, I'd choose a later one with the ash body and black guard. Not that the quality would be better (it would likely be worse if any different at all), but its just more unique. I actually won a like-new '75 being auctioned with a matching '75 Twin Reverb SF for $1800 - but the seller reneged after I won. Too bad, he had the original receipt, all paperwork, and the tags for BOTH!  :(


That '72   must be e very bit as nice as it looks, otherwise tuna-matic would have ripped it apart...

What a beautiful lump of wood. That's how all the beaten up early sixties bursts looked when new!

You'll know automatically because naturally, all 'for sale' posts will be made in the 'for sale' area .. !

Wow, the guy really has some great gear - the 66 PBass up for auction is a beauty as well, as is the 1970 JBass. The 68 neck plate he has is perfect for my Jag, but not at $250!
