I felt it was my patriotic duty.I used the money to stimulate the domestic economy(it's a 62 AVRI).

that's my second favorite fender guitar, right behind the esquire. Did you really get it for $600? If I could find one for that little I think I'd have to buy it.

Thanks for the posts guys!Well,it cost a little more actually.It cost $1047 at Music 123.The regular price is $1449 but this one was a blem so the price was $1231.A friend told me about a 15% off code "gearup" which brought the price down to $1047.Hopefully the blemish isn't too bad. I really wanted one of these so I thought it was worth taking a chance.I haven't gotten it yet but maybe it will come tommorrow.

Who cares about the case, the guitar looks amazing. I gotta stop looking at it because I can't buy any more guitars.

You know, I'd bet the 600$ I don't have that the case wasn't even blemished when it went out!!!

Great looking guitar Mitch! Sound killer with the VOX?

I've noticed for almost a week now I've been getting daily emails from MF and AMS trying to get those $600 "bonuses." :lol:
