Our road manager shot this pic last night...

Before I get any smoking lectures, I jokingly swiped that from a female fan right before the pic was taken
 
I am no expert but I was watching that auction as well. I think if you can get it solid for less than $400, you did good.


I put $750 on it as a max bid, and I could not believe I won at $740. I know a great luthier, and I’m curious to hear his opinion. By looking at the pics, the damage looks very superficial. I’m hoping it’s a $150 fix. Lol.

I think @JJR58 got the smoking lecture a couple of thousand pages back. As I recall, he quit when it was pointed out that by giving up smoking, he could buy a `bird in a few weeks.

I’m still cheating, I cannot lie about that.

And what’s all this about @dukeorock’s b’day? Have a happy my brother!!!!!

There's a flogging in your future! You're not going to like it either!!!
 
Hey Tbird guys. I just won an auction on eBay. I’m wondering what you guys think. $740 shipped. The damage doesn’t look too bad, like as if the fretboard has been knocked up loose from the neck. So, how did I do?

As long as it can be repaired for a decent price you did very well imo. Congrats on another Bord!!

@hillerup is 30 pages behind again...

More like 44....

I’ve been way too busy moving stuff out of my old apartment and into the “new” house, and getting all sort of stuff in the house in order (while doing a 9-5 day job)...

Besides not having internet yet at the house takes its toll on keeping up with the club...
