I broke down and gave in to my gear lust and trucked back to guitar center today and BOUGHT that BELA LUGOSI guitar that I was posting pictures of in previous posts. I was just shopping around and I played every guitar they had in the shop. It took ALL FREAKING DAY and that was the best playing guitar they had IMHO, even better than the IBANEZ RG570 they had in stock!!!! I almost bought that one. Several guitars caught my eye, but this one I had to have. Get this!


It's # 123 (serial is GRAVE123) of only 325 EVER BUILT!!!

I knew is was a special edition, but I didn't realize there were only a few hundred of them in total for the entire planet. It even comes with a "Death Certificate"

**To make it even more rare, it doesn't have a STOCK EMG it's got an ACTIVE SEYMOUR DUNCAN!!! Which is great because I"m in a bit of a LOVE AFFAIR with Duncan Pickups and I"m pretty much over my EMG phase. I traded in my last EMG equipped guitar for this one smile.gif

and a custom made, hand stiched coffin case!!!

Here is a link to the info page and pic from the vendor. There's is a much better pic than mine wink.gif This guitar lists for $1499 ouch!!! That was a shock. The street price seems to be about $900, still ouch!! This particular one evidently never got played but was put on layaway and the guy couldn't get it so it popped back out. Not a scratch on it, brand spanking new. But since it technically had a previous "owner" they couldn't keep it as new in their system. smile.gif I didn't realize what a HUGE deal I was getting on this guitar as I had no idea what is was supposed to cost, nor did I know it was so rare ( 1 of only 325 globally) I just liked the way it played and it didn't look bad smile.gif Didn't research the guitar much til after I bought it. Didn't really care as long as it played well wink.gif

*Just goes to show, PLAY EVERY GUITAR YOU POSSIBLY CAN!!! i went in looking for an IBANEZ and passed up an actual IBANEZ RG 570 which was only $250!! Then I went home and waited a day. (NEVER BUY THE GUITAR ON THE SPOT IF YOU CAN HELP IT IMHO, IMPULSE BUYS HAVE BURNED ME IN THE PAST). Out of all the guitars I played, this was the only one I "missed" smile.gif
