No ,I bid on this the last auction ,they sent me a second chance offer which I thought was fake,so they told me to bid again.

I thought it was a fake, too. It came from a different user, so it *probably* was a fake.
I got one of those '2nd chance' from a CS...

That isn't surprising. He is so used to shills, he forgets who the real bidders are!

Hey Ken, congrats if you actually get it! I'd have loved it (I think it's the nicest V63 I've seen), but your pockets are a lot deeper than mine, particularly at the moment (buying new cabs and paying off cards

).

Well,I got it,I went up and picked it up.Those are the original strings ,looking at the 86 product guide that came with it they all have red felt on the basses,my mistake,I don't remember that,the red box,but not the felt.
It is the cleanest v Ive seen Wow! the case is Immaculate.Even original Ric box from 88 the box has been protecting that case for all these years.

Ken, you gotta play them out.
Last night I took a doubleneck and a 4003 MID (with a horseshoe). Tonight I'm taking a mint shadow and a 72 4001.
