wow... it looks beautiful & you look sad!!!!
why did you decide to sell it?

. money?
. you gave up/ or don´t want to play with it anymore?
. you decided to buy another one or another instrument?

Just curious, music is just a so amazing gift!!!!!!!!

I sold it to help pay for, or reimburse my purse from buying another guitar recently. I bought a gorgeous (sexually, sensually and materialistically) jazz body axe. hollow bodied. sexy f-holes... a washburn j5. I love it. the tone of this thing unplugged is very close to the sound i got from my epiphone.

So, i can use my new electric as both acoustic and electric... and, needs must determined that I should sell. so, money was to blame.

I sold it for £80 a few days ago. packaged it up and shipped it off... it was a sad morning.

haha.. yes!

I'm a big paul weller fan and I had (at the time I created my ebay account) a massive poster of him in his Jam days with his gorgeous fucking Rick! jumping about eight feet into the air from the drum riser and in white text at the bottom of the poster it said "with fire and skill - paul weller" and so I made my ebay handle rellewluap.

But no, MT, not the REAL paul weller. he can write better words than me. and his hair looks cooler.

how much did you get, bennie?

I bid a hundred bucks just because you had touched it

I figured that the r & r hall of fame will pay me millions some day just for your dna lodged in the wound strings.

£80. I'm a bit of a fool really. I could have gotten more. I paid 80 for it about four years ago and knew at the time I was buying it off some guy who didn't really know what he was doing. I could have got more for it. perhaps enough to completely pay for the new axe.

my dna? I wipe dna off my hand every night with the socks I roll up for tomorrow's wash.

I can mail you some of my dna if you like, lr? some of my "special" dna.

How can you not believe in DNA?

just the shape of the molecule is enough to get me.

swirling motion like getting head from eternity,

from life itself religious as science
