Possibly FS: G&L Legacy Special

I really hope it doesn't come down to this as I'm really diggin' this guitar right now, but I may have to pass the G&L I recently picked up. I traded my Hamer Special another guy over at TGP, supposedly for this guitar plus some cash to make up for the difference in our asking prices (cash was my main motivation for listing the Hamer anyways, I have some expenses coming up that would make things somewhat tight right now).

Well, that's been nearly 2 weeks ago, and I haven't received his paypal payment yet (yes I sent an invoice). In fact I haven't heard from him at all since I told him the G&L made it here. I haven't found a way to file a complaint on a money request or invoice via Paypal yet, so if I haven't heard anything by this weekend I'll have to turn the G&L for some much-needed cash.

Anyways, the guitar is a 1994 G&L Legacy Special. Alder body w/ black sparkle finish, maple neck with rosewood board, Sperzel tuners, and killer G&L rail pickups made by Gotoh. My favorite feature of this guitar is the control layout, it's master volume/ treble cut/ bass cut, and makes for a VERY versatile guitar. This guy is made from some nice pieces of wood, as it resonates very well, it's very loud acoustically. You can dial in pretty good classic strat tones if you roll the bass back, or crank it up for a humbucker tone with a touch more bite.

I suppose right now I'm just seeing what kind of interest is out there, I'd like to get about $650 shipped if it comes to selling it.



NOW ON EBAY!

You know what, consider it for sale. Anyone interested? I can take more pics if necessary.

I'm trying to dig up his username now, the backup TGP is resuming from is farther back than this guitar deal, and his username is something wonky that doesn't have anything to do with his real name :laugh2:.
 
Re: Possibly FS: G&L Legacy Special

I should mention that this is an earlier 3-bolt neck version, and the OHSC and tremolo arm are included.

Alright, $575 shipped is the bottom of the barrel, I'd really rather not Ebay this guy :(.

No prob, turns out he got in touch with me FINALLY and had a big financial hit so he's scrambling to recover. That's all well and good, I just wish he'd been in touch in the meantime.
 
Re: Possibly FS: G&L Legacy Special

I had someone say they were going to pay me owned funds after their financial situation cleared up and they never did. I like to trust people, but have learned that you just can't. Escrow services can be really good for these types of trades in the future. Sorry about your situation...

Yeah, we'll see if he ever pays up, I'm certainly not holding my breath.

Someone buy this thing! I don't want to, but if necessary I'll toss it on Ebay this weekend.

Yep it's USA, if I ship to Canada just a warning: I declare the real value (some people ask me to claim it cheap but that doesn't help much in the event of loss). That said I don't even know how much it runs to ship something that size to Canada, can anyone give me a ballpark?

that's a crazy price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, I figured it'd have moved by now? I'll stick it on Ebay next week if no one bites.
 
Re: Possibly FS: G&L Legacy Special

I hope someone buys this thing. What a nice guitar! If it were a lefty I'd be all over it - especially at that price!
 
Re: Possibly FS: G&L Legacy Special

Just about two days left on Ebay, one bid and lots of watchers. Oh and an update with the guy I had traded with, he got a hold of me today and sent an e-check so I'll have it this week.
