So simple, but gave me GAS all the same!
« on: September 08, 2009, 01:11:44 AM »
For some reason I am absolutely enamoured with this guitar, she's beautiful!:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rare-Gibson-Explorer-Korina-Wood-26-years-old_W0QQitemZ180401822660QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item2a00c95bc4&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Was just searching "Korina" on ebay for something to do and this beauty popped up. Usually not a fan of red guitars but this gorgeous looking lady I will make an exception for, heh.  :D

Don't like explorers normally but that is really nice!
I too use chicken as a measurement.

I like it but is a worn mid-'80s Gibson worth £2,800 ?  You could get one made to your own specs cheaper  :?

He's playing on the collectibility bit isn't he.  Don't think it's worth what he's asking for, certainly not in that condition...

Let's not forget that he's already reduced the price by £1000! As if anyone will be fooled by that piece of shameless 'bargain' statement!

I would struggle to justify paying half of what he is asking.
I think I hate being indecisive.

Hmmm...

Was expecting to go "looks good though :D"

But alas no! :lol:

YUK! It seems I don't like Explorers in Candy Apple Red... it looks most ickysome... (personal opinion only, obviously, but I do wonder if that's why they only made a handful?? :lol:)

It must be a blue boon, our guitar tastes are curiously aligned on this one :)

I think it looks cr@p. And for that price, I think the guy needs to have his head shoved in a fridge door repeatedly.
