Relisted due to a non paying douchebag from Hungary.

 

[again with this]

Between that guitar and the new avatar, I think I just soiled myself...

Man, that thing is sweet. Too bad I am a broke-ass workin' stiff with kids who need toys and tuition.

Best of luck moving that.

Haha, thanks man! I gave that dude over 30 days, and still no payment. The auction wasn't even open to international bidders, but he ended up winning, so I didn't care that much, as long as paid and covered shipping...which he did neither.

You actually get someone willing to pay $1k for a $500 guitar? That's cool if you get the money you want outta that.

Uh...ok.

You do realize they sold for about $1500 when they were in production, and they're very hard to find now, especially in real nice condition. Here's one that just sold for $1525 with EMG's.

Stupid Hungary.

No new camera. I just figured out that taking pics outside looks WAY better.

Oh come on, they weren't THAT much. I think they sold new at MF for $1100 or so. I remember when they blew those out, I should have bought five of them.

Nothing actually. I sold the guitar over a month ago, but the guy just didn't pay for it.

 

[Adio_stack]

If I had the money I would be on that guitar like a fat kid on cake

I just remember them and the V Gothics getting closed out for $500 each. I have one of the V's at home, and I saw a ton of guys get the explorers. Not trying to be a dick, just sayin'.

Read my post just above this one. MF closed out all their Gothic Explorers and V's a few years ago for $500 each. I believe you if you say they're rare, but it seems odd.

Well, that's cool you got one for $500, but they're worth WAY more than $500 now. That's just the way it is.

Cool. I guess I suddenly like mine a lot more now lol. FWIW it has a super nice neck on it. $500 w/a real Gibby case was the deal of the century I suppose eh?

 

[mrp5150]

That was definitely a steal for $500. I'm not sure what the V's are worth now, but I imagine it's about the same as the Explorers.

Yeah, I have to agree but if you can get it, good luck... FWIW, all the ones that I saw sold brand new for that, if not cheaper. I came close to picking one up myself ...

what I really wanted and theyre definitely rare was the Gothic ES-135, I played one and loved it!!!

LOL!! dude, I played the thing througha some High gain amp( I forget which) and It sounded awesome!! and I was flying on it as well, it had a really fast neck... I think I like it because it reminds me of Ted Nugents Byrdlands sort of and I was huge nuge fan back in the day...

Hey Mark, how are you able to put all those nice pics in your auctions?
