Why phone, when The Netherlands are only a convenient tank ride away?

We have a new bridge. It'll be one too far for you...

Not all Market Gardens were blooming successes IIRC, didn't the Kingtigers trample some flowers?

Seriously, I heard that our new president, Herr Gauck, is supposed to have performed well in his speech when you invited him for Liberation Day last week. Is that a common perception?

Holy crap, you should see what some of this stuff went for. Late model Epis in the thousands. A lot of gear went for 3x-12x the estimate.

1951 Nocaster $216.000  ???

two late 60s LP Recording prototypes $40,625

Touring rig $81,250

Especially if you start claiming to be his cousin.

Seriously, I would guess yours has gone up because of this. It sure can't hurt.

Not Les Paul...but a friend of mine in Fort Collins is the nephew of Chat Atkins.  I think he inherited a couple of nice guitars.
