Members CrystalLake Posted November 19, 2009 Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 whatever...after sitting back and reading that I'm a dick, douche, elitist, etc etc...I figured I would have the same kind of fun with it that you guys are... I'm not pissed in the slightest... If my life were any better, I'd have to sell tickets... I guarantee these guys got you all worked up. Someone professional would have just ignored it, instead of the wife/booze comments.homo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kevin Book Posted November 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 i creatively googled kevin book, i found him...it says it all: (by the way, he is holding his "56 strat" in the picture to authenticate his ownership of the guitar.) Well that's odd, because I haven't posted any pics of me holding this guitar on the web...there have been a few other people that have taken pics holding it...not me.And what's even weirder is that you "googled" me...you're a stalker.

It's the internet...and full of people that post up the things that you've read here...no big deal...everybody thinks they're a badass on here..Funny though...if there was an actual "need" for all of them...this forum wouldn't exist..Some people need to feel..."needed"...on the internet.I'm not sweating any of it...trust me..

Members gherb Posted November 19, 2009 Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 that sold for 1,800....that is significantly less than 35,000. you can't even count....i'm simply saying people who spend 35,000 for a guitar obviously have far more money than talent and should be shot on sight for being absolute posures.and the h-c forum is a waste of time for the most part...people selling their hair metal guitars from back when they used to have hair.HA! there are only really a few forum members on here that actually sell decent stuff.gherb bitching about someones price?How soon we forget.$2200 for a 90's Tele Plus.Did you ever sell it or just take {censored} for it being priced too high?

I feel people can do whatever they want with their money. If they want to spend it on an expensive car, let it be. If they want a vintage instrument, its fine in my book. No one should be say they shouldnt be a collector of a $35k instrument if they cant play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CrystalLake Posted November 19, 2009 Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 My twin brother and I own a house. Its a 4 bedroom, 2 bath. Do we need all that room? No. But we are fortunate enough to have saved for something nicer, and more spacious. And I wanted a gear room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gherb Posted November 19, 2009 Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 Pretty close minded statement and obviously coming from envy. your signature says it all: You Are Not What You Own i am saying if you are so insecure that you need to own a 35,000 instrument have at it, but you are hiding behind it....as opposed to actually playing the instrument. you people are like talking to a wall....you don't understand anything....i'm done w/ this thread. i'm trying to make the simple point of if you own a 35K guitar, odds are you thinkg the "tone" will make your bad company cover band sound so much better.

Members Kevin Book Posted November 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 Pretty close minded statement and obviously coming from envy. That's what I'm sayin... As far as my "lack of" a description? Look...I could get on here and give a 5000 word description...and guess what...I'd be called the exact same things.. I think it's one of the greatest guitars ever made..some on here think it's a piece of junk... It obviously is worth more than I'm asking because of comparable models..some on here wouldn't piss on it if it were on fire... I have pictures...they're not good enough I have a price...it's too high and it's automatically a fake. I'm a snob...I have a {censored}ty attitude.. You get it...on and on... It's all subjective..I don't hide behind a cute little screen name and I don't have a gay little avatar that's reflects a window to my inner self...I put my real name on it and can back it up. I notice by some of the others posting on here...they probably stay logged on 24/7...I have less than 20 posts...some of you other dudes that are just "locked in" to be some kind of a "forum ass" have hundreds of posts all over this site and I'd bet that they all read just like these..you think you're coming across as some kind of "experienced vet" but you come across as a bunch of bitter, jealous, punks compensating for something else..who knows and I don't care. So for all you bitches out there, look at this link..it's almost the exact same guitar..I don't think it's an ash body because the grain looks like alder but you can see in the little graph to the right what guitars like this, in this shape are worth...and I don't care what you say about it..this is a Gruhn link so go put him down if you're not satisfied...you've seen my pics and can click on them and they open up bigger...wow...have some of you figured that out yet? If some serious buyer wants pics of the neck, pocket, pots, etc...I have no problem but I'm not gonna take this guitar apart just to satisfy some of the smart asses here...I'm not gonna take a chance at damaging something if I don't have to. It still won't be goo enough for some though so...no worries...I'll still sell it sooner or later. http://www.swingmusic.net/1956_Fender_Stratocaster.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So because someone does not play there 50s Strat out they are posers or bull{censored}ters? I could name a million examples of people not making "good use" of whatever it is they have that doesnt make them a douche does it?

Members gherb Posted November 20, 2009 Members Share Posted November 20, 2009 dude, you people have serious issues. you have axes to grind with such fury. get some counseling and chill the {censored} out. you people evidently can't take a philosophical point about the expense of instruments. you just want to get angry and be absolute jerks. peace out people. it's obvious that you people don't want to debate the idea you just want to find fault somewhere. you feel blame makes people responsible. read for meaning, it will certainly help you in the long run. sunshine, rainbows and peace.... i wuv u!
