The Guitar Pron Thread
I thought I'd chronicle my fail-trip in an attempt to make myself feel better. The following images are not the actual pieces I saw. I drove from Odessa to Abilene for a 7 on 7 football tournament. I had made loose plans to possibly go to either DFW or Austin on a gear hunt, if we didn't make the qualifying round. And we didn't, so I chose DFW and hit the road. Things I'm really interested in finding right now- Les Paul Junior, single p90, wrap around bridge/tailpiece, tobacco sunburst. In the $600-&700 range. PRS SE Singlecut, black, p90s. Epiphone "Inspired by 1955" Les Paul Custom with p90s, satin black. Marshall Class 5 combo, simply because I used to have one and wish I had kept it. Anything else that piques my interest.... I first went to Denton to check out a couple of the pawn shops. Didn't find much, but in the process I discovered Sky Guitars. Very cool place and nice folks. They had a pretty cool LP Special (2 p90s and TOM bridge) but it was in TV yellow and that ain't my thing. Also had a PRS SE Tremonti that was marked $279 (steal) but it had a pretty good sized ding on the top. So I bought a couple of packs of strings and left. Next drove to Guitar Center Dallas Central Expressway. They had the Epi Les Paul Custom in stock and it was marked down $120. Checked it out, but it just didn't grab me by the booboo. Pass. They also had a very cool Telecaster MIJ Fotoflame that was in great shape for $550. ^^^That's the closest image I could find of one. These things are getting more and more collectible apparently, going for $850- $900 on Reverb. I had one way back when and it was cool. This one however did not have the chunky neck like the one I had owned previously. Tempting, but pass. Next to Sam Ash down the street. They had a very cool Epiphone Brent Hinds (Halestorm) Flying V that was marked down from $799 to $599. ^^^ not the actual guitar I saw. It had a small ding on the bottom side, otherwise in brand new condition. I'll own another V one day, but not this day. So I wandered around to the amp section, and holy shit- Marshall Class 5 combo, and it's in cream! $375 on the tag. Good price. I turned it on and piddled with it for a while, and then left it on longer while I stood and stared at it. Piddled some more, beat on it to see if it made any weird noises, etc. Nothing. Seemed to be in good shape. Should I buy it? Yes? No? Do I need it? Yes? No? It's getting late, and I need to decide. In the end, Like a mature adult I talked myself out of it. As I was driving west on 635 I kept thinking go back, get it. But I didn't. Wound up getting home at 3am, wondering why I even made the trip. So yesterday morning I checked Reverb for Class 5 combos and found a mint unit in black for $300 plus shipping. Drank a cup of coffee and took a quick shower, then checked the listing again. Gone. Fuck. So that was my fail trip. Excuse me ladies while I go kill myself.

I discovered Sky Guitars in Denton today. They had a few of the Parallel Universe models there, along with other cool stuff. Nice people. I'd never heard of the place.
