<2021-06-24T03:41:19.000Z> KashKustomer: Discovered it had 2 layers of metallic paint & HAD TO relic it https://img.poast.org/b4fc9858a84fa94f472869cfc2e664cf29b8bb2f3be2c88e3532123bfb47dbc1.jpg
<2021-06-24T03:42:22.000Z> KashKustomer: It's a Fernandes. Pretty much a 'he might have spec'd this' type of phantom.
<2021-06-24T03:42:52.000Z> KashKustomer: youtu.be/v7RaVSAs-98
<2021-06-24T03:43:22.000Z> KashKustomer: ^ the inspiration. That was an awesome show.
<2021-06-24T11:59:32.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Nice. I've always like Fernandes
<2021-06-24T17:55:01.000Z> KashKustomer: I hope no YouTube fags turn everyone onto the yuge deal an MIJ Fernandes is
<2021-06-24T18:33:59.000Z> SuperMailFatality: I know I have been looking at them on ebay, they're like 350 bucks
<2021-06-24T18:34:27.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Meanwhile a mij ibanez or jackson goes for like a grand now
<2021-06-24T22:06:24.000Z> KashKustomer: Hint: GC used is basically a robot. Algorithm sez 'pay mark $110 for this Epiphone G400'. Sucker takes it bc broken dreams or trading in or whatever. System prices it at 2x or $220.
<2021-06-24T22:06:57.000Z> KashKustomer: I notice that it's an Iommi G400 Signature and yoink.
<2021-06-24T22:07:56.000Z> KashKustomer: Play for awhile and car gets wrecked, flip for $400.
<2021-06-24T22:09:18.000Z> KashKustomer: Local ads too. My SG1 is like $850 on Reverb, got mine for $400 off of Craigslist. Sub offer up or faceberg marketplace and there you go.
<2021-06-24T22:20:37.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Oh I've done that for years. Another trick about GC, they don't adjust for upgrades. So if some tool bag puts a $200 pickup set in their Squier, GC will still sell it for $99. Replace the pickups with $6 chinese knockoffs from ebay and resell the guitar,  voila free Seymour Duncans.
<2021-06-24T22:23:15.000Z> KashKustomer: Yeah I did that with an $89 Gio. Pearly Gates Neck and JB. Sold the pickups for $125, put the pair of Bootstrap Skookum 90s I had in their place & gave it to my roommate for putting up with my bullshit lol
<2021-06-24T22:24:27.000Z> KashKustomer: I have like $300 in straps because a friend who worked there said those basically don't count if it's 'case candy' on a used guitar.
<2021-06-24T22:25:59.000Z> KashKustomer: Guitar of mine comes in to 'try out something in the amp room', strapless or like a $3 nylon job...leaves sporting Levy's leather lol
<2021-06-24T22:26:28.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Oh yeah I've gotten unopened sets of strings and tuners and shit in the nice gig bag the 99 dollar special comes with. One had one of those curly Vox cables they sell for $35
<2021-06-24T22:27:14.000Z> SuperMailFatality: That's how I got my Reuinion Blues pinstripe strap lol. They wanted like 40 bucks for those
<2021-06-24T22:29:17.000Z> KashKustomer: The Kickass bridge & straplocks on the Fernandes are off of a Samick lefty Valkey Arts where someone threw that, cool MIJ machined knobs, and an EMG GZR in it.
<2021-06-24T22:30:26.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Nice. It's amazing what people let go sometimes.
<2021-06-24T22:30:58.000Z> KashKustomer: GZR, the Badass II & MIJ Gotoh tuners I yoinked off the Fernandes ($200) went on a Performance P bass second I got for $50...!!!
<2021-06-24T22:31:37.000Z> KashKustomer: It was local in LA & Kenny from Performance Hollywood verified it was his work. 
<2021-06-24T22:32:35.000Z> KashKustomer: Got maybe $500 in both. Gave the Samick to Ivan Deprume for a few bucks off of ky studio bill.
<2021-06-24T22:32:46.000Z> KashKustomer: *my
<2021-06-24T22:58:56.000Z> SuperMailFatality: Thats awesome
