stupid should hurt
« on: January 30, 2010, 02:28:03 PM »
one of the things i do to keep me busy when i'm in too much pain to do much more than sit on the couch watching tv is i LOVE the dealing and bargaining and haggling in the trade and sale of musical instruments. this afternoon i had found a squier version of the thinline telecaster and the guy said it's brand new still has the plastic on the pickups, so i threw the digitech multi effects box i was trading to get the tele and headed out to elgin. the guitar IS brand new, still has that blue sheet plastic covering the pickups and pickguard.........on the Squire duo-sonic and no matter how much proof i gave him (the lettering on the headstock saying duo-sonic for instance. i finally got pissed off and came back home the guy had already sending me an email saying, this was a special thinline that they put the wrong necks on so they were worth even more than they were selling for.

okay heres an example of each guitar now, see how theyre the same guitar?....................NOT!

well, i have no right to call this guy an idiot or moron anymore. i needed to soak a broiler pan so i put the plug into the sink drain................................and walked away for a few minutes. i just finished mopping. lucky for me it only overflowed about a minute.
