Got this email from JFB yesterday. I was tempted to give a silly price, but my luck it would've been some impatient fella with disposable income.

Wow... since you and I both received our Z's near the same time, im imagining myself in your shoes right now... initial response is hard no.

Playing devil's advocate- first thing on my mind would be is there any physical changes I would have preferred (wood, color, inlays, etc), and then is the buyer willing to pay FULL retail plus interest for the time i had to wait for it to be built. Both of those would have to a yes with no second-guessing for me to even consider selling mine. :spit: :roflmao:

I’ve had this happen…. It was a tough decision but I made a few $k in a few months which led to me being able to turn it into my number one now.


that’s got to be my favourite colour shift paint.
