NPD (that's NBKPD!)
« on: February 10, 2009, 09:57:36 PM »
OK, I know these "N_D" threads have been causing a bit of a stir recently, but I'm not here to gloat about picking up a Tom Anderson for 75 quid or something...

These used to be the zebra Cold Sweats on Twinfan's recently-departed #2 McCarty Korina.  Now chrome covered and ready for my Mira.  :)

The VHII turned up last week.  It's white, 53mm and destined for a Strat.

Sorry if I haven't been paying attention but did you send those pickups back to BKP to get those covers fitted?

I sent them to BKP, where they had chrome covers fitted, before continuing on their journey to Phil  ;)

Get 'em fitted and let us know what they're like in your Mira  :D

No, I know I'll like 'em!  I've tried a CS set already (borrowed from Hunter - what a nice helpful bunch of people we have on this forum!)  :D

Hang on... you're not hiding something from us are you Philly?

ie. I've been wondering who the new owner of this "recently-departed #2 McCarty Korina" is... :lol:

(sorry if I've missed something in another thread and you're entirely innocent...)

 :lol: Totally innocent.  And not hiding anything (not in this case, anyway.... )

Dave sold the guitar to I-know-not-who, but put the original pickups back in.  And I got the nearly-new Cold Sweats for a very nice price.  :D

He IS entirely innocent!  He just bought the pickups  :)

By the way, my #2 McKorina is on eBay.  The guy who bought it loved it there and then, and put it on eBay 7 days later  :roll:

The poor thing, she cannot find a good home for long, what an awful experience for such a young guitar!
