that exact one in the TM link had a price tag of about $1200 if I recall, I took pics of them when I was there but deleted them off sometime back, they also had some of his Bogners in the shop

Re: Capo guitars
How would you feel if you'd paid $1299 for one of these earlier this year? Also note that he's taken the luthier's name off the listing.

That one is almost worth it for the pickups. I’ve been after a set of Pearly Gates for ages.robthemac wrote: ↑Sat Dec 26, 2020 10:59 am How would you feel if you'd paid $1299 for one of these earlier this year? Also note that he's taken the luthier's name off the listing.

Re: Capo guitars
I'd feel bloody stupid and at the risk of sounding like a cock I can't imagine why anyone would pay that sort of money for a guitar like those!robthemac wrote: ↑Sat Dec 26, 2020 10:59 am How would you feel if you'd paid $1299 for one of these earlier this year?

Considering the seller, would you trust those to actually be genuine Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates?olegmcnoleg wrote: ↑Sat Dec 26, 2020 11:12 amThat one is almost worth it for the pickups.

Re: Capo guitars
I wonder what Music Planet's reaction will be if we show them that the same person who provides them the Capo guitars are selling them for $390 etc on trademe lol

Re: Capo guitars
