?????

What?

 

 

spenietele ...

 

you're running several ads for guitars ... and you don't seem to want to give all the information you could ...

multiple photographs from different angles, including close-ups,

descriptions that included measurements, defects, wear & tear, the guitar's history and usage etc etc.

 

I'm not trying to be offensive.  I'm trying to be helpful.

spenietele

Sorry predictive txt it's s med c shape good condition but a couple of little dinks but over all good shape. Neck shows no sign off where to frets

To be fair, in the title he does say it's a "beater" 

I'd be tempted at the new price if it were closer to me.

CloudNine

Used to own this also. Certainly is quality for the money. Think I used to have an idea that these were stainless steel frets, as lack of wear didn't seem proportional, and didn't think it had been re-fretted. Could be wrong.

close2u

so at least three owners on this forum ... some history / detail etc coming out - provenance as the antique dealers might say .... goodie

 

CloudNine

Not sure why you need a detailed history of a guitar, it's not a used car. It's a nice guitar, verified by several people, and for about half the price of a used Les Paul.

But I agree, some pic's would help: http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/Stevieb76/library/Heatley

close2u

Yeah ... it's the lack of pics and detailed description beyond the bare facts ... I'm not really thinking that a full history is needed ... I guess I'm exaggerating to make a point and help the OP ... he has other guitars for sale with just one, not great, photograph

Because it is an 'unusual' guitar too there won't be thouands of google hits to fill in any other detail.

I googled this earlier ... pics like this are definitely good:

So does it weigh 8.8 pounds or " Just a hair under 9.5lbs" as here? 

spenietele

That depends on whose scales your using I suppose on both sets of mine its between 8.4 and 8.6 so I took the middle but feels very comfy on a strap and very well balanced

spenietele

Sorry 8.7 and 8.9 I should have said

mattacjones

find another forum spence ... this one seems to be struggling to recapture the spirit of MR. stick it on ebay with yr phone number, someone will do a deal. i'm not interested in case your scales are out by a few ounces.

Just trying to help you make the best ad you can  - honestly and truly (apart from the plays like butter comment)  - vitally important on a 'niche' guitar I would say - this and your other guitar are real tempters on the GAS front - but there are so many unknowns and questions that extra photos and a few detailed words of description could address ...
