Vintage ace guitar strap - $120 (Panama city fl)

http://panamacity.craigslist.org/msg/3816421962.html

[chuckocaster]

So, all those old crappy "hippy" straps I find are worth big money?

[ziess]

Hey, I love those straps so if you've got spares I'll take 'em!

[Gravity Jim]

That trashed "Les Paul" reminds me of a guitar locally... the owner of a used and vintage store got a Les Paul body that somebody fished out of the trash at Gibson, cut in half (or so he says). He glued it back together, put a Tele-style neck (maybe a short scale?) on it, and installed cream P-90s. It's been hanging, with some kind of homemade decal with the word "Blues" in the name, on the wall of his store for many, many years. It's for sale, but nobody has bought it because it's the heaviest, most unresponsive and worst playing guitar you have ever seen in your life.

Serious inquiries only. Must be 21 or older. Prefer 30 or older. Must have transportation. Must have own gear. Must be able to focus and follow instructions without an attitude. You must have show experience and portray a professional demeanor on stage. "Noodling" before, during, after sound check or in between songs will get you fired without pay. Must be able to keep quiet from the press. Practice is a must and you must NOT talk about it. Practice is not a party and your girlfriend and friends are NOT invited. This project is for serious individuals. If you cannot accept these terms, then discontinue reading and go watch t.v.

A Tool cover band is forming in the Panhandle. Two gentlemen are covering the parts of Maynard and Adam. We are seeking exceptional individuals with extraordinary skills to play the parts of Danny Carey and Justin Chancellor. Please be advised that this is a huge responsibility with very little pay. In fact, most monies earned in the beginning may go to production until we reach a higher pay scale. It will be worth it in the end. Your success in this band may catapult your career as a bassist or drummer.

We intend to develop a one hour set as a supporting act. By next summer we want the full 4 hour gig with production. This means you have to be on your game at all times.

As of June 8th, one member lives in Bay county and the other in Walton. We'd like to find the others in the same area and find a practice space everyone can agree to. House jamming is ok for now as we get to know our future mates.

If you know you can fill these requirements, reply and we will get back to you. It will be a major plus if you have youtube videos and/or reverbnation (does not have to be of Tool covers, but wont hurt) to back you up, but not required. Please leave plenty of time for our reply. If we cant get to you today or tomorrow, don't send a message telling me to screw myself. That, my friend, is your misfortune... not mine.

This is not currently a contract position. You must know how to wear a belt. •it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

A sad squire trying to sell his Squier, living in a fantasy world where people pay three times what something's worth.

----------------------------

Epiphone LP Custom (Rare) - $500 (Eastern Shore)

Up for sale is a rare Epiphone Les Paul Custom with chrome hardware and a mirror pick guard. The guitar has Upgraded Alnico double coil pickups in it. The finish is beautiful and StrapLok has been installed on the guitar. There is a lockable hardshell case with the instrument as well. This has been played very little. It was my drop D guitar (for 2 songs) in my last band. It is so hard to take good pics of a black guitar...Price is firm. No Tax.
