I've had good ebay luck this year .
Just sniped a Paul Bigsby (the real father of the solid body electric) designed solidbody from '57. A refin but i could care less. the pickups and metal are all original.
I never EVER thought i'd have a paul bigsby guitar. i am quite stoked to say the least.

That's a bad ass Mario guitar, slap a blue pick guard on that. With that M on the bridge tail there would be no mistaking.

can't believe the price i got it for.
i know a big magatone collector that's going to help me with the headstock emblem and knobs. i talked to him earlier today, he said don't pay more than 1100 (i was only willing to pay 800).
i am happy.

fuck me, a quarter of the people on the Gretsch Pages would have kittens just to see that thing.

That is damn fine. The description's great too. Re: the finish: "It’s certainly not a Gord Miller job, but it looks better than a garage door." Niiiiiiiiice.
