Nice one Graham!
Is this the same one I posted ad for?
http://www.matsumoku.org/ggboard/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=12934If so you did very well to get it at that price. The original asking price was $500.
Happy to see her go to a member here too.
No this is not the one that's still listed for waaaayyyyy tooooooo much at $500
I found this ad and pounced on it. The seller was in Waterloo Ontario.
Nice guitar yes indeed.
I once owned a VP710 a long long time ago when I lived in Burlington. I (would love to get her back, but it's since disappeared)bought it at Steve's in Toronto in 1980. Was my first guitar.
I used and abused it for years until I acquired more electrics. It was a really nice guitar although one particular evening I got violent and stabbed it repeatedly with a 5A drum stick. Numerous stab wounds to the front of that guitar. I know... bad thing to do to such a nice guitar.
I loaned her out to a friend (RIP) and his son eventually took possession of it.
Never saw it again.
As for the pic's I originally posted, my sincere apologies to the real owner here.
I have posted a couple of mine.
And as one of my other posts reads, about 3weeks later I found an original hard shell case for it for $40 bucks. Called the guy immediately and again found myself near to Kitchener.
The rest is history.
Sorry to have caused anyone harm or foul regarding the "other" pic's I used initially.
