Guitar = $800

Shipping, insured for $1000 with USPS = $164

Escrow & wire fees = $25 and £25

Tax (for the $1000 insurance value) = £131

The overall cost to me was about £670.

I know $800 is a little more than they usually go for, but this is a supremely B-E-A-utiful (geddit?) example!!!

Thanks dude!!

I'm definitely up for that. We should sort out a jam somewhere. I have a drummer I could bring - he won Young Drummer Of The Year 2007 and is actually mindblowing lol. He's in my band .

Check him out:

Harpal Mudhar - Young Drummer of the Year 2007

Know any good bassists? I am SO up for some random 7 string jamming. Let's put the 'mental' into 'instrumental'. Ha. Ha.

Is it wrong that I actually really want that as a tagline to every instru track I ever do...?

That really is a steal at that price!

Could do indeed. What's your band called?

What Lies Within

We don't have a MySpace or anything at the moment, but I'm on the case!

There's also a band in America with the same name, but they're not signed, and it seems as if they've disbanded as they haven't accessed their MySpace page for a year, and that was to advertise for a new drummer... I hope it's okay :S

Haha, our singer got us a gig at the Twist the other night, and the phone conversation went like this (he was selling us ):

Singer: blah blah... and our drummer is the best under-18 drummer in the country.

Owner: Ha! Oh yeah? Where's your proof?!

Singer: Err, no, he actually is. Officially. He won Young Drummer Of The Year.

Owner: Prove it.

Singer: Okay. *gives him the website*

Owner: Oh.

Indeed! Pretty much a semi-custom guitar for that price is ridiculous.

Has everybody wanting a Carvin with a longer scale length politely bugged them about making a Baritone Scale-Length 7-string? At least once?
