I hate that "not as described" garbage. Just like the Washburn I almost bought - not even close to what was pictured in the advert - and that was from a big retailer, not an individual.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr!
The pic must have been retouched, as the bidy was damaged at the neck joint. Also, the neck was scarred, and a fretwire was protruding.! No doubt my friend Alan could have repaired it, but even so, I felt that I couldnt patronise a liar! So I said,  and, :x and now I'm So I'll now remove the "gleeful" tag, (which changes with my mood, as I'm sure you realised). Cave canem
