No interest in the Gretsch....but definitely have interest in some new organs Like a '66 Hammond maybe?!?

PM'd again...will call this afternoon.

PM'd

I waxed the Rolls yesterday...its the Lambo that needs waxing...

seriously, who the hell has the money for one of those things now....good guitars are now only for the elite...what a {censored}ing rip. Do the OP a favor and delete your post. A shame HC doesn't have age verification. Nice geet...if I had the dough I'd make an offer. Just finished my basement...

YAY! Dude remember i offered you my Chihuahua for that tele? You should have traded with me lol Funny...but I remember having told you that my two Shih Tzu's trumped your lone Chihuahua!

Ok...he called! I am sure he had seen this thread and my text stating that I would call the police. He'd had a decent excuse for not getting back to me...he was in the hospital with his injury situation. I indicated to him that he could still continue the trade as long as he continues to communicate with me regularly. I know his injuries are legit, I guess I didn't realize how extensive. He did admit that he should not have initiated a trade in his current condition and apologized repeatedly. Again, my only concern is/was the lack of communication. So, I am going to let him work out the trade one way or another. Thank you guys for your kind words and advice. It really helped me forge the course action I'd taken. I hope to be able to report a successful trade in the near future. I will keep you posted. Thanks again, Brian

:facepalm:You realize you don't actually get swine flu from pigs, right? Tell me you do.... ROFLMAO!!!

I remember when you bought that tele....I SO wanted it. Yeah...it is a beautiful geet. One of the best I have ever owned. I am just not a Tele guy....I was trading for a very special Gretsch that I would have loved to own...now I just want my guitar back.

maybe he got the swine flu or sars, thought about that? Lots of pigs in Louisville if memory serves me correctly. Weird...but I sort of hope it's something like that too...

Backer - Hard to say at this point whether you're dealing with an irresponsible jerk, or a thief...but it's got a bad smell to it. Either way, just for your protection you might want to do a little research with the Ky. Office of the Attorney General (internet fraud), http://ag.ky.gov/ Also, the Louisville Metro Police Dept., Financial Crimes Unit, 502-574-7660. They also have a Fraud Squad...502-574-7045. Hopefully, your guy has a good reason for the non-communication and things will work out...never hurts to have a back-up plan, though. Good luck, bro. Really appreciate that...I will definately use that info...I am planning on making my move tomorrow.

FTW..........hope this works out though BH is one of the good guys here,he helped out my dad big time. Thanks P.

Do you remember having seen on the news some crazy guy hitting a cyclist on purpose?

He is from Louisville, KY. If you see my Tele....anywhere....please let me know. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?t=2322974
