  2. [quote name='bubinga5' post='1167486' date='Mar 18 2011, 06:34 PM']whats the point..who you gonna sell em to?[/quote] No big problem for people like this - who have also specialised in faking vintage amps & instruments for many years - to alter serial numbers & other details... And when you are well established international vintage guitar dealers - there's all sorts of people on the other side of the world you can sell them to...
  3. [quote name='Johnston' post='1167729' date='Mar 18 2011, 10:15 PM']Can someone tell me if I have the basic jist right. Someone goes to somebodies house who owns a collection of Vintage guitars. Somebodies house gets broken into and guitars nicked. The nicked guitars turn up in someones shop for sale.[/quote] Not so much all turned up in one guitar shop...the 'characters' we're talking about owned a whole chain of (in-famous) guitar shops in the UK (& still do own shops - together with a very famous amp brand) & were (in fact still are!) very big players in the global vintage instrument trade & therefore perfectly positioned to make a large number of expensive vintage guitars 'disappear' into the market place...
  4. Words fail me on this one...! It's so bad you could almost be forgiven for thinking it was a spoof!
  5. [quote name='skej21' post='1153059' date='Mar 7 2011, 09:44 PM']I don't know Doncaster very well, but this may be worth a shot; [url="http://www.musicground.com"]Music ground[/url] The address is on the contact page if you're interested [/quote] Music Ground! That's the last place you want to go! [url="http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest-news/father_and_son_guitar_theft_charges_1_3017049"]For starters...[/url]
  6. I've played bass in a band with Chris Leslie - one of the nicest & most talented musicians you could ever hope to meet...and he even makes his own violins! [quote name='KK Jale' post='1149075' date='Mar 3 2011, 11:22 PM']I went to college in Newark with Chris Leslie. Heck of a fiddle player even then. The folk sessions we had in the pubs were amazing... I was playing guitar in DADGAD in those days, don't any more... I've got several of the classic Fairport LPs but have never seen them live! Really must put that right.[/quote]
