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.

Paypal will take care of you Rufus. I had an issue with a seller and they were fantastic. Resolved within 4 days.

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, Tongue and, :x and now I'm Sad

So I'll now remove the "gleeful" tag, (which changes with my mood, as I'm sure you realised).
