So I'm sitting at home facebooking and not really wanting to leave the house. I call my Mom and postpone my visit till tomorrow. Tomorrow comes and it's today. I still don't feel like leaving the house but I smoke a bowl and I'm off! Mom's house is forty five miles away and I'm freakin' losing it over some guy driving 25 miles an hour all the dang way! I get to town and I see an Estate sale sign and I don't know why but I had to go. I have not gone to one in over a year. I get there and from the outside it looks like a one room house. I go inside and it goes on forever! I get to the back room and the door is closed so I ask. "Can I go in and the lady says 'sure! That's the music studio'. So I go in and spy these! An American Fender Deluxe in a translucent white also this Koren made Sheraton! I say $750.00 for the both and she say's UH,uh,uh OK! Sure changed my outlook on the day but I still needed to get back home as soon as I could!

Great Find!

I accompany my wife on many Estate/Garage Sale expeditions...just in case.

Meanwhile, she has standing orders to buy anything that comes in a tweed Tolex wrapper.

Cheers.

"Tweed Tolex"????

A non sequitur if there ever was one.

Great deal these guitars.

I had a Korean Sheraton before , pickups are very good very very close to my Gibson ES335 .
