Hi guys, I need to make some room so I am selling my white Classic Pro. The bass is moddified with Chinabuckers and my Badbird II bridge. The only condition issue are three small holes where I moved the tailpiece. I will install the original strap buttons before shipping. $400 Shipped free in the lower 48 states.

I should be all over this, but for once, my priorities will have to stay messed up. Major payment to school pending.
Now I have a sad. :(

You had mentioned in previous post about possibly getting a set of Lollars for your t-bird to give it a more 60's sounding vibe.

I see now! What I meant. was...I’m fairly certain my 2014 Gibson will remain as is, because I really love it for what it is, but I’m considering another ‘Bird (hopefully two more), one of which would get Lollars for that sound. At a minimum, I want one strung with rounds and one with flats

Whelp still no word from Sam Ash on when they expect them. Sent in an email saying the most recent ETA they gave me was 12/15 and asked if there was any update. Response was "not in yet sorry!" They offered a pretty good discount to keep the order when I asked to cancel my preorder a while back (sweet water was already shipping them out).

I'd like to keep my order with them in case I receive a lemon as there is a sam ash close enough to me that I could drive to a store to return it. But, I'm wary that at this point it wont be until well into 2018 when they start stocking them since the ETA keeps getting pushed back.

From what i understood, when i inquired with them as well way back, is that. They weren't getting that many to begin with, then they cut back their order.
So. it's a real crap shoot going with them at this point imo.

Cats seem to love me, when Im at a friends place the cats come out of hiding and start rubbing against me and purring like crazy witch usually baffles the owners. Im not a cat person, doesnt mean I dont like them but I would rather visit them than live with them. I think they are interesting.

Well, I've head that cannabis and catnip are related, so.... ;-)

@PillO I hope you're doing better. And I hope they warned you about the NSAIDs to make sure to have with food and such due to the potential stomach damage?

The cat last night.

It was a bit disconcerting to get different answers every time I spoke to them. For example, when I first reached out I was told they had one ebony VP preordered then I would be second in line. When I placed my order a few days later, dates had already shifted around and suddenly there were no preorders at all? Also in addition, it went from sounding like the rep had direct knowledge of the status of their shipment (as in # coming in per port and how many of each color) to basically just ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, while we're at it:
