03 Faded Special ebony board w/dots

[Biddlin]

Hi gang, I'm selling a 2003 Special w/ebony fretboard . It is well used, but in very good condition.

It comes with a TKL trunk type case

I'll be asking $600 on Craigslist, but would take $525 from another etsg member. I'd prefer to sell locally, in the Sacramento, CA area, but could be persuaded to ship at buyer's expense.

Why are you selling it? I'm in Oakland right now and would be very tempted to go pick it up from you at that price but I fear my lady woud kill me.

I should never look ad ads for SG's.

Please buy it Kev.

 

[Kevy Nova]

Believe me Dave, I would if I could. That thing looks perfect!

You know you want it. I'm out of room and already have a
faded I love . I haven't formed a big attachment to this one, yet !

Go on Kevy, you know you want to... Take your lady out to dinner, and THEN tell her you bought another SG!

Taking her out to dinner would not help; she doesn't want me spending money PERIOD.

My wife is the same way. Sweetwater has a sale on the Variax; I'd really be able to use all the sounds. No way to talk her into it.

 

[Biddlin]

Aw Horse feathers, you guys just don't know how to handle women . when I want to buy a guitar I look my missus in the face and say, " I'm buying that guitar, love." and if she doesn't wake, I'm in like Flynn !
I've got to stop playing it or I might get attached, it happened that way with Andrew....

Kevy, just sell one of the other guitars you have. No one will notice that, its the total amount of guitars which counts.. That '02 I just bought is a superb SG. If that era of SGs are about similar that easily compensates the sale of some other.

 

[Biddlin]

Admitting I've got a problem hasn't helped a bit!

Well, between the truly bizarre responses to my Craigslist ad
("Let us get it I go hard no days off paint on my face layin back rollin the feelin like these rap aint as real as you are stating? You could easily say that I am very interested so let me come over to look at it whenever you will let me please reply over to me on ..." WTF ? )
and having had it in my hands long enough to start getting some ideas for future mods, I'm gonna hold on to this one for a while, at least. But you guys know where it is, so don't be embarrassed to make offers in the future .
Now, what to tell the missus...Something about embargoed wood, perhaps...

I knew if I didn't sell it quickly I'd be "stuck" with it. (Like my poor suffering wife is stuck with me.)You just can't beat the feel of a Special and as I played it last night, I realised this one would be great for modding, maybe even a refinish to a satin black. I'm hopeless.

But I already have an '02 and an '03!

Ok, one more '03 might be too much in that case. Even though it is some times good to have about duplicate as spare..

 

[oldrockfan]

I was tempted to go for it just as a spare to the one I already have but cash is so tight around here these days... this economy spoils my fun
