Fender 5c3 1951 on Kijiji
Fender 5c3 1951 | amps, pedals | Calgary | Kijiji


Sent from my other brain.

Price dictates condition? The idiot should have said condition dictates price.


That same store had a fake Les Paul in there for the longest time, priced high even for a legit used LP.

I was in there one day looking at their used video games and figured out it was a fake within 30 seconds. I mentioned that fact to them and they claimed that their 'guitar guy' had verified that it was genuine. I told them that, if that had really happened, their guitar guy was a complete idiot who didn't know the first thing about Gibson guitars and then showed them all the signs of a fake. They ignored me and the thing stayed up.

Their used video games are overpriced too so I go elsewhere for those.

I will be driving past the store in a couple of hours, maybe I should go point out to them why that guitar isn't worth $22k. Or screw it, let the delusional bastards keep it in inventory forever.

Someone is delusional:
whatever it was, is gone now.

It was a MIM Standard Strat that was selling for an asking price of $800 which was justified because of upgrades - pickups, knobs, and pick guard were all allegedly US made.

I remember when you could actually get a good deal at that store. I bought a Traynor YCV50 Blue for $360, taxes included.

Those days are long gone. Their stock is crap and their prices are stupid. They regularly have used pedals selling for more than they cost new.
No different from Reverb where the prices of new gear is mostly well in excess of what you can get it for from a music shop. Or, the price for a pedal is really good but they charge $125.00 in shipping.

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I'm selling something, I told the guy it's first come first serve. I will not wait on someone who offers me less than asking price and does not have a firm day to come and pick up. I gave him a heads up that today someone is coming to check it out. You know, it's probably courteous to update a potential buyer. He goes on this rant:

So absolutely fucking sick of craigslist and people in the GTA
all fucking morons
no edicat
no manners
stiffing people all the time
telling someone its yours
then someone else is coming to get it
really
fuck you
keep it
thank god for my US counterparts
and thats why I buy US
maybe he wont even buy it tonight


Since when is something yours when you have not purchased it? Gave me a good laugh out of it, and I couldn't resist replying.

Lol. Have a good one.

His reply:

What part of move on didnt you understand

I really couldn't help it. one more reply.

LOL. You're the one getting mad. I said have a good day.

His comeback was so good, I may have gotten butthurt for a second.

Stretch.....................yawn.....................sorry did you say something

Long story short, if you guys run into Audio FX Recording Studios, be ready to deal with a 12 year old who knows a thing or two about EDICAT.

Sounds like Fulltone rants. Sure it wasn't Michael Fuller?

Update: the other guy bought the item an hour ago. It looks like Mr. Audio FX's curse upon me didn't work.

If you google Michael Fuller Fulltone, you will find within the first few results the kind of "service" he provides his customers. Telling them off, cussing at them, etc...

Oh I thought they found something about Audio FX Recording Studios. I have read about Fuller.

Audio FX Recording Studios isn't big enough to have rants against him. This may very well be the first. When you google Audio FX Recording Studio, on the right hand side, it'll show you a google map location of where they are... and it's a residential house.

Search on "Fulltone Owner".

Nothing wrong with that. Wampler Pedals are freakin' amazing and he runs his business from his home.
