I Actually Found One!!!

[smitty_p]

A work colleague of mine and I were talking today. I don't work with him daily and only really work around him every couple of months. Anyway, we started talking guitars. I didn't know he played before today.

Anyway, I asked him what he had.

He said, "Well, it's a little different..."

So, he pulled up a picture of the type of guitar he has online to show me what he has.

It was a CORVUS!!!

I actually found a Corvus owner!

I'm honestly kind of psyched about that.

...and you found him in real, flesh and blood, life?!?! Wow! Awesome!

 

[eSGEe]

I ALMOST was a Corvus owner--- but I lost the bid-----

Funny thing is, when I told him I have a couple of SGs, all he wanted to talk about was SGs. It seems he really wants one of those and has never had one.

Hahahahaha! He was talking to the right person! You have a couple of fine examples of SG excellence in your collection!

And...I had the pics on my phone to show him!!!

Maybe he wants to trade a Corvus for an SG?

He didn't ask and I didn't offer!

I think a trade is in line here

Smitty, I was considering a possible sale of one or more of my guitars as once again property taxes are coming due at the end of July and I am a tad short of cash to pay what I need to.

If your coworker would be interested in any of my SG's, I am willing to consider selling. I will PM you some info.

WTH did someone do to that guitar?

I see the features of like ten different guits there.

It's like when you see a mutt dog, head of a shepard, legs of a dachshund ears of a lab lol.

A Gibson Victory --- a Marauder-- Challenger--Invader---Map-- --or Firebrand would be AWESOME -- if anyone comes a cross one
