Hilfe! Need quick idea how to save spending 8,500 bucks ...
« on: April 15, 2009, 08:36:11 AM »
Nuff said:


"BG1652 Gibson Thunderbird VI Prototype. In 1990 Phil built this "concept bass" as an extension of the Thunderbird Bass line, which had always been limited to the TB-II and TB-IV. Like the original Thunderbirds and Firebirds, this bass features 9-piece neck-thru-body construction, with walnut and korina neck and korina body wings. Pearl block inlays and gold-plated hardware complete the ultra-deluxe look. It is in Mint condition with its original hardshell case......$8500"





As usual, the culprit for this threat of unneccesary spending is kungfusheriff/Shawn aka The Alembickerer. This man embodies sinful waste.

Guess what? If I was rich (lawyer or not) this baby would be mine. Even with that gold hardware. I_can't_resist_block_inlays.

1 - You're at the wrong place. We won't talk you out of it, but in it! (*)
2 - No one here tries to argue with a witty German lawyer.
3 - Don't waste your time posting here, but mail that guy and buy it!
4 - Just work an extra day this month.


(*) You can better start a thread asking for reasons to buy it. We all supply them gladly and it'll make you feel better.

Ok, I'll give it a try.

You shouldn't buy it because even I like it. (Normally I only like Rickenbacker's)

Since when do you like binding, block inlays and gold hardware?

You're a completist. You want it anyway.
