I had contacted the seller on at least two occasions to inquire on particular details but....................
The first reply I received from the seller, he claims that he, "cannot get used to humbuckers, and is a single coil guy." LOL, yeah right jerk off.........
Here is but one reply from the seller?
"Thanks for the info. I'm not an expert so I don't know whether the email was correct info or not. It seemed knowledgeable and friendly so I included it. It was from some guy in Canada. Actually this is just the second time I listed it. I had so many emails (over 80 watchers and 30 emails) requesting different photos, and I could not add them because someone had placed a bid already. The guitar will sell this time. Feel free to bid if you're interested."
Here is a later reply from the would be seller.
"Hi and thanks for the question. The back is two pieces of wood , perfect grain and color match (you can only see it because of slight difference in relection of light on finish). One large piece, and one 3" wide piece on top bout of body. When I bought the guitar from Japan I was told it weighed 4.3k. I am strongly considering keeping the guitar for another couple of years and am debating ending the auction today. Things are selling so low right now on ebay. Although I might be tempted to sell if I knew I could get $1200-1500. Maybe I will relist later with a BIN only. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Best regards, Thomas "
For myself, and I can ONLY speak for myself, I am a buyer, a seller, a collector, and a player, period.
I know that encompasses quite a bit of territory but at the end of any day, one only has their integrity, and nothing else.
People like eBay member coolcat540 are nothing more & nothing less than bottom feeding game players that have nothing better to do than to f*(% with other people.
Obviously, everything that I have previously mentioned concerning this item & this seller have turned out to be true; I wonder why?
The seller obviously doesn't know how eBay, or selling works, and he obviously doesn't know if he wants to sh*$ or to get off the pot......................
