I find myself the (nearly) owner of a 1624 off of ebay!
Country Artist

How do you say no to another flavor of Ice Cream when it's $175? Hoping there aren't too many surprises. Not the best or loudest Classical out there but it may be the only Slothead I can afford this year!

I remember something about a peticular type of strings working well for this. Any opinions?

Next is to pick up some of Serge's CDs and see just how bad I am!

Peace

Make sure the bridge is in the right
place before you buy it !!

I know of at least one knucklehead
who forgot to check before he bought.

Jim,

That did seem like a painful story. Hopefully one that isn't repeated. I believe you will have to go through a lot of communication with people but it will work out well.

My thoughts were "How did it slip past QA" and "Did Sam Ash (inc) know that something "wasn't right" at some time"?

None of us are Knuckleheads because of situations that happen to us.It's the bad decisions we make that matter more :rolleyes:

Hope both of these have Happy endings.

The only bad thing from eBay for me is the buyer of some TRCs died before he made payment. I didn't see a button for Feedback on that one.

Maybe "Good ebayer to the very end"!

The best I could translate was that laminet is TRC - which doesn't scare me in the least.

Transcribing ebay jargon to separate finish cracks from Aunt Martha sat on it bears a lot more scrutiny.

I get to work on my scratch and buff technique now.

Congratulations wished I'd seen that but alas I was working.
