Hey all,

I have been looking at two guitars these last few days, and have now settled on my Dream Axe!

It is an SRV Strat - Built 1992. So it is somewhere in the first ones to be made I suppose, as they were first released in 92.

This thing is clean as, and not a mark on it. In fact, the guy that owns it is a lefty and has never even played it.

I am so amped (Pardon the pun) to have this guitar and can't wait until it arrives.

Cheers
Mongrel

HURRAY!

Be very careful crossing the street and don't daydream about it while operating heavy equipment. You wanna be safe while the excitement builds.....

Yeah - don't want to even leave the house :)

Should be with me in 3-5 days as it is being shipped cross country - but I am super excited.

Thanks mate,

My mates think I am a bit weird because I told them that the day I take delivery will be quite emotional. They said... "What... its just a guitar"

But then again... they dont play - so how can they understand.

Cheers

Well, congrats on the new purchase. I know how you feel. If you're anything like me, you'll be locked away with it for quite a while :)
