Baretta Special

[Rollin Hand]

Don't need a guitar.

Considering selling some guitars because they don't get used.

Buuuuuut....I have a gift card, and these are on sale for $279 CAD at L&M, plus you get a $25 gift card.

I don't currently have a mahogany-bodied guitar..this one says it's "mahogany" though I am sure it's more "mahogan-ish" than the real deal.

Would want a new bridge and Tusq XL nut, and locking tuners, but I still like the look of these for the money.

And I do have a couple of Floyd-style trems lying around...

Not to stoke the fire, but you could also pick up a used one at Sam Ash for $150...

Not from Canada, I can't. L&M apparently has some used ones, but I would have to call or go in to see.

I would be ALL over GC's used selection were I in the States.

Ah, sorry to hear it. So you're basically saying being Canadian is kinda like being a lefty.

I'm currently on Sweetwater's list to get a call when the red Baretta Special is back in stock.

I'm an idiot because about a month ago I saw a used Kramer Pacer Classic at my local guitar Center priced at $325. It had been upgraded with a pair of Duncan pups, Gotoh locking tuners, a Floyd Rose 1000 Series, and the neck felt like somebody had sent some serious time dressing the frets and rolling the edges. Stupidly, I walked away. I went back the next day and it was gone.

I would be able to get one tomorrow if "need" be.

I have too many projects right now though. Going to work on one of these means less time for other pursuits. Like:
- rewiring my Spad
- new pickup and setup for my RG350M
- redoing the rewiring on Watson
- putting the PAF Pro in my Jack Butler
- trying the old Gotoh pickup in my partscaster
- my backed up string changes
- building my 50th b-day present flying V kit
- building Project Vortex
- actually playing the damn guitars.

Not really. Thanks to L&M we still get excellent selection, and often times the prices are better if you take the exchange rate and shipping into account.

No-brainer deals are slightly harder to find. But they are out there.
