Potential ebay bargain - yamaha Ty Tabor drop6
What's Hot
I have no connection to this auction, but have been watching the starting price drop over the last few weeks (no bids at £250 last time out). I'd love to bid on it but really can't justify it as I need to reduce not increase my collection. So I'm flagging up in case anybody is looking for a solid drop tuning option (not to everyone's tastes I'm sure!). For some reason it doesn't seem right for it to go for £150!

Surely not ?
I already have 1 longer scale guitar that doesn't get played enough! If it were standard scale it would get more chance of getting played by me. I think you should go for it!
Yeah - that bid was already in. Because I was tempted but held back I want it to go for more than £149 for some reason. Not quite sure why I feel like that, but I think it's because I'd rather the crazy bargains to be the ones I bid on rather than the ones I hold back on! If that £149 bid is someone on here I'd be pleased for them though!
@ChrisMusic I think the listing looks pretty genuine. They initially listed it as collection only, and have gradually lowered the starting price / included a delivery option as they struggled to sell. The only question marks for me were what they mean about the switch (sounds like coil split), and the fact they have it tuned to standard E at the moment which seems a strange thing to do on a longer scale guitar.
The pups alone have a fair value, plus hardcase...
not that this should preclude anyone else from bidding of course but he was emailing me at 2:30 this morning about ebay strategies as he was too wound up about it to sleep !
