SCAMMER WARNING: Due to a spate of recent scam attempts (some successful) recently, if you're doing a deal in the classifieds, ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES UNLESS YOU KNOW THAT INDIVIDUAL PERSONALLY. It's really not worth saving a few quid.
What's Hot
You all know how good these are...
Back story is I got involved in some wild and crazy deal late one night after too much whisky and not enough ability at poker which led to me ending up with not one but two Felines... Initial intention was to play both and keep one; then decided to keep both; then the winds of drunken recklessness led to further ill-advised purchases and to save me from sleeping in the car and seeing the kids once a month in a porta cabin round the back of Toymaster under the watchful eye of a social worker, something has gotta give.
Specs:
Ash, semi-hollow body (no 'f' holes, just heavily chambered)
Indian Rosewood fingerboard
Maple neck
Locking tuners
Oil City Pickups.
Hiscox hard case
Dunlop 6000 frets
Oil City Hardman neck pickup
Diesel Tapped in the bridge -
with the tone pot in the normal position this is a 'vintage strength'
pickup, pull up the tone pot and you get extra windings in circuit -
thickens it up nicely and gives you a nice little boost (nothing major,
but certainly nice)
Comes with two bridges, Wilkinson, traditional 'ash-tray'
bridge with brass saddles currently fitted, and a rather cool 6 saddle version in the case. Each intonated, and a quick 4 screw change to your taste, sir..
Weighs in at 3.1kg (6.975lb).
£1500 ono - as ever would prefer to hand over in person (and travel a reasonable distance to do so) as I think couriers do this stuff deliberately, but if necessary will discuss transportation options.

And you could be caressing animal howls of pleasure from its sinuous curves so, so easily...
Slightly poor form to grab it and whack it up less than 3 weeks later for £250 more, no?
Rather keen to recoup some ‘value’, as is the nature of a ‘sale’, but thanks for the observations which I imagine will be most helpful to any prospective purchasers in seeking to haggle a deal. See the ‘ono’ bit next to the asking price? That’s code round here for ‘I’m open to offers’.
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youedit: this was based purely on the pictures of the guitar, not the surprisingly civil fracas that followed
Can we award Mr Moans some sort of prize?
He's behaving exceptionally - I agree, if you don't like the guitar - don't comment, but why stick the knife in like this? Senseless
As someone who sells fairly regularly on here (and who has had more than his fair share of poor behaviour - including backing out of agreed trades with feeble excuses), if you want £1250 - you start at £1500++.
Advertise something at £1250 and you'll get offers at £950.
But regardless of that this attack blatantly breaks rule 6:
'Flag it if you genuinely think that an ad is dodgy or breaks the rules, don't harass the seller on the thread. Criticising prices counts as harassment '
@TTony or @Jalapeno (sorry not sure who to flag to) are you aware of this?
Sorry, nice guitar GLWTS .
* I don't really know if I've used that correctly.
A ) It looks freaking awesome!
B ) I couldn't afford it at either £1250 or £1500.

I’m in that London: work slap bang in the middle; recline on cushions in the evening in the louche pleasure grounds of Barnet.
It's not "economic morality", it's something known as forum etiquette.
While I appreciate you digging through my posts to try and find some sort of retort, I'll note that FYI, that was value increase over time. Not a 20-day turnaround.
