A Gibson Dusk Tiger for £1500!

Wonder how it ended up there. Hard to believe anyone would steal it in the first place.

I wonder how little they paid to the person who brought that in? I also wonder whether the local constabulary needs to take a look?

Problem is it's hard to get anyone to admit they had it stolen from them.

Also, the Vintage VS6 next to it is more authentic.

It's awful bit there's a part of me that would still like one as an oddity.

I quite like the scratchplate. *washes mouth out*

I think a little bit of sick came up

We had a coffee table like that when I was a lad in the seventies.

I blame Mark Agnesi

I have fond memories of these from my teens - That and the Vintage 'Wraith' (poor man's BC Rich).

I genuinely wanted the latter to go with my wolverine haircut 'n' burns.

Didn't someone on here have one? I can't remember who it was though.

The reflection looks like someone waiting to steal it.

^ I almost bought a Vintage Metal Axxe Wraith for a very few quid just to strip the parts, then I found a Dean Dimebag Black Bolt ML for even less.
Still haven't been able to cannibalise it, it is actually rather good 
Dusk Tiger, hmmmm?  Still, one of only 1000 made

While the staff all look the other way and then claim on the insurance

probably not been back since the reaction to his NGD

Gibson must have known that they were onto a loser when no oriental guitar companies copied the Dusk Tiger.

Me too, but not for fifteen hundred quid.

It was Mark who took it in, things haven’t been going so well for him of late.
