It's like a tatoo. You can have tatoos removed, but there's always something left behind from it. If you're gonna mark it, make sure you want it there.

I have a Pete Townshend model. I forget what number it is in the run, though.

I have a 360/12 CW that is 305/500. I love it to death. I would say the rarest LE guitar would be a KAY, and I rarely see them come up. Their owners really love 'em and don't want to part with them, and I cannot blame them because the guitars look and play great!

My 360/12 CW Fireglo is 472/500 - I put on a plain upper pick guard and silver topped knobs and made it into a Harrison

I use a Sharpie at work and methanol (a.k.a. methyl alcohol, wood alcohol, MeOH) does a good job removing it from impervious surfaces like glass. I also have used MeOH to remove Sharpie ink from whiteboards abused by those who want to write their nessage in stone ... works OK but it does make the surface more porous to the ink of the dry-eraser markers.

Back to the original theme of the thread:

Brian - I won't rest until I've rounded up the other 994 of them!!!

My CS is in the 200s of 1000. Can't remember the exact number. Can't be too many lefties.

Brian, i'm the high bidder on that 381JK, as of now.

It's going to shoot up any minute.

Posted: **Fri Jun 24, 2005 11:21 am**

I don't own any signature models yet.

I would love a Peter Buck guitar if one was offered, though!

Thank you, Doctorwho! (Doctor, who?)

Wrap it up, I'll take it

although I'd replace the signature upper pickguard with a regular one.... actually I'd replace them both with black plastic to matich the trussrod cover.

One hour to go and I am STILL the high bidder on this 381JK at $1950.

What the heck is going on here?
