This quote from Wikipedia: -

In 2005 and 2006, the Chapmans were involved in financial difficulties resulting in personal and business bankruptcies due to failed property development.

Maybe this is why he has sold some of his collection? ?

Lucky man Alain.

Seems at least two guitars survived the disaster , a Harley Davidson (sold earlier this year to a friend of mine) and this one.
BTW when he received the HD, the strap had been stolen, so if you know any Company which might be able to make a repro (or a close repro) it would be great.
It looks like that:

We do have the exact specs from mine

UPS and, mostly, French Customs are a little lazy on Fridays so she will find her new home only on Monday morning.
What a lousy week end :cry:

Ouch! My other guess was going to be about Tikis, but I saw a lovely paint job featuring pink flamingos and thought it to be the most beautiful Strat I'd ever seen ... :lol:
