  • Look What The Little Brown Truck Brought Me!!

    Well guys, its here!!! I finally got the SL2GX Rootbeer #7 from Archtop yesterday and man it is even more amazing in person than the pix Eric posted or the words that everyone said about it!

    Here is a link to my post in the Feedback section with the whole story, please read it because Eric was amazing during this deal [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]

    A Few Words About Eric "archtop" Paige

    I have always wanted one of these and came real close to snagging a Chlorine a few years ago but the deal fell thru! And now I own one..Thanks again Eric!

    The Brown Monkey's actually delivered it well, even the box was in great shape. I was really worried especially because of the speed neck, but it arived perfect! Its dead mint and plays like a dream. But enough of me babbling on and on...here are some pix, as required by the <font color="blue"> Official JCF New Guitar Brotherhood Act Of 2003 </font> !

    Thanks again to Eric for this amazing guitar and KICK ASS deal!! I am forever grateful! Also, to everyone else who posted in the original FOR SALE thread encouraging me to get this...I am glad I did!

    I'm out!

      [img]/images/graemlins/drool2.gif[/img] Wow, nice top! That's one of the nicest Rootbeer finishes that I've ever seen, and it really brings out the figure in the top! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

        THANKS!

        Its NOT an archtop tho, just a standard SL2H with a quilt top and a speed neck, with a special serial number as well!

          Nice, very 'warm' looking guitar. Must be delight to play.

            Wow, that is one sweet Rootbeer. I'll bet that paint job looks cool on a stage with blue/yellow/green lights shining on it. I'd like to have one just like that with a Floyd.

                  That is pretty, but why o why do you guys continue to use UPS?

                    Probably because F'edEx couldn't find their ass with both hands, a seeing eye dog, a map, and a Personal Trainer [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                    F'edEx employees are those who failed the Postal Service exam.
                    UPS ain't much better, but even not much better is better [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                    Speaking of the Samsonite Apes in the brown suits, I've been waiting for a DR2 since last week - passed a FukkinUPS truck on the way to work Monday and Tuesday, just knowing they had the guitar. I got home the day after both times and it still wasn't there [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
                    Damn decoys [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
                    Someone was definitely home both days to accept the package, but the seller didn't ship it out till Monday anyway (just got his email) [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
                    I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
