Lance, is this something that Deb would allow you to post on
MIMF? Seams that since it's going to a good cause and all
you'd want as much exposure as possible.

Hey Lance... I don't see anything about the case in the description of the kit. To me that is a major selling point.

Also, what kind of case is it, any one you want?      Is there a specific size?

How about that redwood top? That wouldn't be a LS top would it?

I am not picking.... just trying to help maximize the $$$ this thing brings in.

Hey...wasn't Bruce donating a K&K pickup for this kit?

We really need pickup for this kit...

Don W., you were close. That,K&K Sound donated Pure Western Pickup System, went to the Marc Durso Auction kit put together by Tim Mcknight and due to auction on Ebay soon.

That kit auction is to benefit Marc's plight, car wreck, broken bones, big bills, no insurance, etc. I donated the ebony fingerboard and ebony bridge for that kit.

I'd bet the triple K&K Sound Pure Triple Transducer system would sound really good on that guitar.

Well, why not ask them to donate to the Tsunami Victims fund too? Those folks are far worse off than Mark is...
Come on Bruce...ask them! The worst they can say is "no.". Nothing ventured, nothing gained. You have not, because you ask not...or ask amiss..."

Besides, if I win this auction, I'd like there to be a pickup in there for me! Just kiddin' Bro, just kiddin'.

Hey Bruce, I can ask them if you want. I'm a dealer too and it
might look better if someone else asks. Let me know. P

Why doesn't Bruce or Paul give me a good buy on a few K&K and I'll donate one.

Author:  Dickey [ Sat Jan 22, 2005 7:55 am ]
Post subject: 

Don, I put ten systems on the shelf, just yesterday. Buy two basic systems and I'll give you a free one to toss in this kit. Or.. buy one Trinity Pure System and I'll toss in a free basic system for this Tsunami Auction. Your choice.

Post subject: 

Bruce, you've got a deal. I'll buy 2 and you donate 1. I need pickups and can do some good. How about if I go in half on the donation so you don't take a loss?

Author:  Don Williams [ Sat Jan 22, 2005 11:50 am ]
Post subject: 

Great ! Now I can justify a higher bid on the kit!

Author:  Dickey [ Sat Jan 22, 2005 1:22 pm ]
Post subject: 

Thanks Don A., heck, I'm gonna go bid again.... this deal just got a lot sweeter!
