Re: Robin's Guitar Stuff for Sale
For me it would be sentimental value. I've loved that guitar since the first moment I saw it.
me too...but its not really a guitar.
if it had the hardware in it, and was basically a guitar robin used, then it would be cool...heck, I almost bought the last one he had going on eBay...i get the fan value in it....
but this is ripped to shreds...and not even during a concert, so that you can at least say he destroyed it during his manic last solo in paradise city...it was probably his guitar tech guy who was using it for spare parts...
Re: Robin's Guitar Stuff for Sale
Should have done this 10 years ago...except he should have sold all of it instead of some of it.
Buzz - you're one of my favorite posters on here - but was this really necessary?
Is there any one on Evo who doesn't know your feelings on Robin by now?
Let it go.
Re: Robin's Guitar Stuff for Sale
I bought a '71 gibson sg carcass like this one for 200 dollars on ebay. The headstock was broken and then luthier repaired. I spent 300 dollars on all new professional/name brand pick ups, hardware, and electronics and installation and 5 years later i still have a great sounding instrument that I do all of my recording with. I believe the guy, that sold the body to me, said it cost him about 100 dollars to be fixed. That's a total of 600 dollars (500 for me) put in to a vintage gibson instrument that is worth way more than that, starting out from a carcass. plus it's got some added value coming from an ex gnr member.
Re: Robin's Guitar Stuff for Sale
it always amazes me that people run up the auction a week before it closes just so they can see themselves as the top bidder..the higher people see it going for the more they will be willing to pay...its all psychological man
This auction is the perfect metaphor for Finck
how so? i dont follow...i must be slow today 
i cant believe that New Schecter Tempest Custom Guitar is going for less currently than the damage body of a guitar that Schecter is a sweet lookin axe man
