A shameless plug...
Maybe I should raise the price...?

Holy Stradivarius, Batman!!

A question, Greg. The ad says worldwide shipping but you won't ship to Japan. Why so?

Greg, what model are those big ones, and how do they sound and compare with the 500/1's? Aren't those the ones that Stu Sutcliffe played? Are they hard to find? Hofner Presidents maybe?

Kent
I don't know about posting my pix, they are usually too large...which group are you suggesting ?
Hofners , Ricks, Fenders, Gretsch,Framus ,Gibson,Epiphone?

Bob..Presidents, Senators , Clubs, or 333's or as you say "STU's". They sound very stand up like with necks to match lol...Sound has more bottom than the 500/1...IMO..stays in tune easier too.

Kent ...How about a posting photos 'lesson 101' on posting pics here. I have left links here ...but a fly got in the ointment... got into to my lilypix album and deleted some photos (as I failed to logoff..never again!)...now I need to go one at a time from now on.

What is the going price for a "Stu" Greg? I like those, really cool looking and I like the bottom too, are they long or short scale?

yes, often the pix are too large. When that happens I load them into a photo program (like ARcSoft or photoshop) and reduce the size and save them as that size.

As you all probably know, simply right-clicking on a picture (on the web for instance) allows you to "save as". Then just try "upload attachment" to this site and see if its too big.... then go back and manipulate the picture as needed.

Holy Cow, Batman! .... how many guitars do you have? I have the feeling that I'm making the acquaintance of a world-class guitar collector! Shall I bow down now or later? Any pix you might have would be great, Rics especially. (I'm not much familiar with Framus)

Wow!!!!! An eBay bidder has opened with $100,000.00! Could be Pauly himself. And it's still early. Wish I was a left handed millionaire to up the anty.
