codename Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Thought I was over it but the first guitar I bought was a 79 or 80 Cort Flying V and I 've always wanted a real one. This came up for sale literally a 5 minute drive from home , 2012 67 reissue mint condition , $1200 CAN. O.B.O. Looked it over, yep mint , talked guitars for a few minutes , offered him $1100, he says" just give me $1000 ($790 US) ,that will be fine".😲 Glad I went to check it out . Cant seem to get pic to load. https://imgur.com/a/MZXUc2M 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codename Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Thank You ! I couldn't be any happier with it other than when I get pickup covers for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparquelito Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Congrats. Great guitar!! The naked pickups look fine to me, but then again, that's just me. I don't care for anything that subtracts from the rock. 😐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub-T-123 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) Wow nice deal! That is such a cool guitar Edited July 28, 2021 by Dub-T-123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitefang Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I'm still trying to digest the seller offering it to ya $200 less than asking price and a hondo less than your offer. He'd be getting all my business from then on. Whitefang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Congrats on the guitar. His is a generous spirit, he must've liked you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Gang Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Congrats - guitar looks brand new in the photo, and a great price too 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codename Posted July 29, 2021 Author Share Posted July 29, 2021 Thank You for all the kind comments. The seller first listed it for $1500 OBO then lowered it to $1200 OBO after a couple of weeks. I guess he had no bites, there isn't much of a market here for higher end guitars . After talking to him for awhile I got the impression he just wanted to see it go to someone who could appreciate it for being in such mint condition which I do. It plays perfect and has a thin/flat feeling neck that I find very comfortable . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
