The guitar corner

[Ron S]

Maybe if you paid, oh, $300 for it.

For that much, I'd expect the band to gig in Philly. B-)

Joe, you gotta be more subtle.

"Sure the disc is $15, shipping and handling is $285"

50 cents a day Joe, 50 cents a day!

That's working on me!

. . . or 3 measly gigs.

[scottb]

It's working on myself. For 50 cents a day everyone should have one, or TWO!

You could sell one for $100 profit cutting your costs further still.

Shipping is FREE, no taxes.

This is a NO BRAINER!!!

Okay... I can sell it for $100 dollars profit. All I need to do is buy four of them, sell three (for $399) and whalla... free guitar.

I don't think it will be that easy...

[Ron S]

Too late . . . I just ordered every last one they had in stock.

Drat!

Now we need to move this to the Mosaic profiteering thread...

The last Alleycat!?!?!?!

[Jim Alfredson]

If it makes you feel better, Joe... I was hanging with Nagy today and that man has more guitars than I've ever seen!!

Forget the Alleycat. What you need is a COOL Cat--Grover tuners, a beautiful natural finish, a REAL jazz box, and great customer service--all for only $250 ('cause you aren't paying extra for the Gibson/Epiphone name and advertising ).

That's supposed to make him feel BETTER?

That is a nice lookin' guitar. How is the workmanship? Are the ends of the frets finished?

The workmanship is very nice, especially for only $250. The ends of the frets are indeed finished and beveled down. The one I got had a couple of little blemishes in one place on the neck binding (I have a photo of them if you're interested), but they're taking it back and sending me a new one (with their apologies for the problem). Other than that, the guitar feels very solid, and is finished beautifully. It compares very well with Ibanez Artcores and Epiphones that cost up to twice as much. You should head up to Union and check it out if you want to see it in person. But be aware that they told me they don't have many left and won't be getting more in until the summer.

I knew you could!!

I thought Ron's little "I bought the last Alleykat" ploy might scare you into a commitment.

Guitars sold = 3

Continue following this thread at your own risk!

InDEED!

BTW, why does it say CODE instead of Quote in my post???

I asked because when I was there on Saturday trying basses, my buddy was whining 'bout the ends of the frets on them.

I might swing by there later this week, even though the Epiphone is supposed to keep me from doing that.

The basses are SX brand, aren't they? It could be that the Agile products are better made--they're obviously a bit more expensive. Maybe our resident AGILE DESIGNER would care to weigh in on this (I know Blake's lurking around here somewhere ).

Yeah, NOW he says he HOPES you like it, after setting the trap and pushing you in for the kill (with a little help from the rest of us).
