I'm going to post it here, just so that everyone can read it, even after it's taken down.


__________________________________________________ ______________________
Here’s what I fondly refer to as the Craigslist dictionary. These are terms you normally see to describe gear, and their actual meanings.

• Played once then stored: I hated this thing so much I put it away as soon as possible.
• Minty: Broken.
• Mint: Broken.
• 9.9/10: eh…decent.
• 9.8/10: It’s seen better days.
• 9.7/10: It was dragged behind a car for 500 miles.
• Vintage: Old and crappy.
• New tubes: I cleaned them with Windex.
• Need this gone: I stole it.
• Just intonated: I saw this word online and wanted to use it.
• Professionally setup: I just tuned it
• Looks great under stage lights: Needs the lights turned off to appreciate the looks
• Has some fretwear: The frets look like two W’s side by side
• Needs work: Good luck!
• I got this in a trade: I was drunk and blacked out, woke up with this.
• New drumheads: I painted them white so you can’t tell.
• One of a kind: The builder learned from their mistake.
• Rare: Most of these broke right out of the box.
• PRICE FIRM: I’ll relist in 3 days with a lower price, be patient.
• Cool gear, not my style: I was smoking a lot of pot…did some soul searching…wore one change of clothes for weeks…bought stuff I didn’t want. Sobered up, clearing out gear.
• Conversation piece: Unplayable
• This amp screams!: I wish the treble knob wasn’t broken off at 10.
• Plays like butter: I put butter on the strings.
• My band just broke up: Please see my other listings for leather pants and chain necklaces.
• Great for metal: Cover up the tone with as much distortion as you can.
