Why does he always lean those precious axes up against a post so they look like they are going to fall down if you breathe on the picture too hard?

I can think of a few exclamations that would convey your feelings quite adequately, Chris but unfortunately they can't be used in a public forum.
I reckon the first one is an absolute, first class gold plated cracker!! The colors (if the photo shows the true ones) are sensational.

That guy is 10 miles high! Maybe he's going for the Japanese impulse buyer, if such a person exists.

Paul, I think he gets many japanese buyers. He also seems to get these collectibles quite often. And it's not just the RIC's ( oh Sorry Rick) that he gets. He is pleasing some of the people all of the time. It's not the prices that bother me...it's the fact that I can't afford them.

Arrogant, true .Though, a funny little man.It must be the Florida humidity, and I am from Memphis. We met him in Arlington of all places. I doubt he remembers me .Anyone with no socks, black shoes. HAR/HAR .Great cars & guitars though.
Prices are higher for a 2 o'clock vs. one o'clock F-Holes?

Arrogant, yes. But, some guitars are rare AND some people will pay anything for them. If I was a millionaire, I would purchase the Lightshow! Of course, after a few of those I wouldn't be a millionaire anymore. Anyways, I think those guitars will stay put for a while.

OOOH, Gar, I have seen that picture I think. Is it yours, or is that picture from an archive? Either way, it is beautiful. I wish I knew how they made those circuits, as someday I might buy a copy 330, cut off the top, and do something with christmas lights. Until then, or until the real thing.... nice picture! What a tease.
