Members Cränky Bästärd Posted May 24, 2009 Members Share Posted May 24, 2009 Sold off a ton of gear. Bought these two guitars and stuck the rest of the money in the bank. Both are re-creations of old Gibsons. http://s196.photobucket.com/albums/aa137/rmbnxs/Santa%20Cruz%20RS/ http://s196.photobucket.com/albums/aa137/rmbnxs/Greven%20L-00V/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members knockwood Posted May 24, 2009 Members Share Posted May 24, 2009 With guitars like that, your moniker just doesn't make sense anymore. Beautiful guitars. The best-sounding git I've ever heard in my life was a small-bodied Greven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've owned a couple L-00s before, and this Greven sounds just as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cränky Bästärd Posted May 24, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 24, 2009 Two goats for you, then! Congrats! When I was in college I lived in a house that had a pet goat in the backyard. It ate everything, including its own house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeepEnd Posted May 25, 2009 Members Share Posted May 25, 2009 You are one lucky guy. In fact, I'd hate you if I could work myself up to put in the effort. Meanwhile, congratulations and play them in good health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cränky Bästärd Posted January 24, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2010 Had to send the L-00V back to Greven because the bridge cracked on the surface along the pin holes. An easy fix (super glue and sand), but still a bit of a drag. Oh well, it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
