Yeah, I was looking at this a couple of months ago - I get the feeling it's gonna be sitting there for a while, someone mentioned that they were all guitars they'd had no luck selling in-store or individually online, and so they've grouped them all together in a "collection"

It's all in the packaging and creative marketing!

Didn't mean to re-post an old thread. Just thought it might be of interest to those who had not seen it. There are about six of them that I have lust in my heart to own.

I'm tempted to make an incredibly lowball offer... just to tick them off & give them a hint.

Do it! Offer $20,000. Then we'll get 20 folks to kick in and split the bounty!
