Humbuggers.......How Sweet....... ? ?

AlanRatcliffe

...still better than "motherbuckers" (Mighty Mite). Originally a three coil pickup, but they've given the name to their high output humbuckers now.

Ha Ha, I just offered the dude R250 ? better than R250,000!
What a nut ?

_-L-_

FenderBender

lol maybe he'd get his price in 10 years or so, the rate that retail prices are going these days ?

Sean

250K ? That is one amazing squire ?

Heath

after some investigation , it was found that it has the tears of jimi hendrix , eric clapton , srv and alan ratcliffe , never needs new strings , never needs tuning or setup , guranteed to survive with the cockaroachs after nuclear war , and will make you sound like anybody you ever dreamed off , woman will worship you and men will want to be you ............

I heard that if you smash thi sguitar on the stage, the roof will fall down. ?

aubs1

I think the seller is from Zimbabwe..........and he meant Z$.......hey, that's cheap....like about R25.00!!!
And the HUMBUGGERS??? I don't have a guitar with those yet, where can I find this seller???? Hahahahaha

DonovanB

I saw a lapel mic being advertised as a "lip held" mic. How do you sing if you have to hold it in your lips?

oooooohhhh, its for humming.... :dance:

I still don't know how much to offer this guy, any ideas?
I did mail him to ask about the guitar color and pickups!

AlanRatcliffe

Well the colour is clear in the pics. And It looks like DiMarzio Pickups - Air Zone and Air Norton IINM.

If it comes with the stand, offer him ZIM $500.

Boredom + Internet Connection = That Gumtree ad... ?

It would be interesting to see what responses he got!

I think the problem with these ads are the keyboards that the seller types on. The "0" button might be stuck when they post a ad and then they don't check the ad before posting it. ? ?
