In the spirit of "share the wealth" and "create a level playing field" and such, you should give to me one of those guitars. I'm thinking the V88.

If you have any doubts about my plan or the fact that this is in your own best interest, please remember that I am from Washington, DC.

Actually, Jim, I was gonna give you the V88 until I read you were from DC. I am of the opinion that nothing good ever comes from DC. In the interest of preserving the history we all love, I cannot, in good conscience, give you the guitar. Let me know when you move.

Jim's new Lyrics to
'Leaving on a Jet Plane' :mrgreen:

All my bags are packed, Im ready to go
I'll be standing soon outside your door
I'll be there early to pick up my V-88
Now the dawn is breakin, its early morn
The taxis waiting, hes blowin his horn
Im so happy I have the '88, I could cry. :mrgreen:
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.

HAHAH!!! Leavin' On A Jet-Plane, huh!

I'm not sure a conventional jet would be fast enough to escape the wrath of someone who just had their prized V88 confiscated.

I might have to become a Rocket Man!

:lol: :lol: :lol: heh, heh, enjoyed reading the great reply's men but best of all is that SUPER little family of Guitar Toter's Mo's! Man, what a bunch of beauties...I love how the 'pearl' in the Pearl White one comes out great in those enticing pics...wonderful. And all of the headstocks...in natural finish!
(now that wouldn't be a coincidence would it GTSP?! ;) )

You've reason enough to be proud, thanks for sharing! (...now back to the pics once more, drool) :geek:
