I wonder how his mom feels about all those dusty, striped guitars on her sofa that
this guy brought up from his basement room.

This ad's been up for a few days now with a price drop from $170 to $150 after a few folks posted to point out that this is a mic that Sweetwater sells for $79.99 brand new. I had to e-mail him to find which model it actually is, BTW (it's a CO1U, and the Cakewalk 'ware is bundled with the mic...note the ad doesn't specify any of this).

Samson Studio Microphone - $150 (Visalia)

I Have a Samson Studio quality MIC, only used a few times also comes with Cakewalk recording software, I bought for my studio but then upgraded more, i still have the box im asking $150, i can negotiate but this is studio quality u can reach me at xxxxxxxx @ Yahoo.com

I hope his sales skills are better than his writing skills. Is it really that hard to write a couple cogent paragraphs on the Internets?

It would certainly seem so.

What the hell part could be termed "struts" on a bass guitar? And "great hard case"? Really?

Quote:
Nice Red Ibanez Electric Bass. Sounds great. Struts were custom set by previous owner, so very operational and comfortable.
Moving, must sell!!! Great hard case included.

Maybe he took his bass offroading and figured he better upgrade the suspension system before he did that.

His music isn't really for me, but I agree its ok. It was mostly the name coupled with the photograph.

Ibanez Electric Bass

The "hard case" refers to the intense investigative research involved in discerning what the **** bass struts are.

...and that's totally a cheap dreadnought acoustic guitar case in the photo

I thought that looked like a dreadnought case, and I'm guessing that the struts are the bridge saddles, since the (apparently clueless) seller talks about them being adjusted.

He's got to be talking about the pickups.....What the hell else could they be, unless strings are now known as struts..
