It's not as if anyone is intentionally stirring the pot, but still...

My wife came across a certain somebody playing an x935 on YouTube awhile back (I honestly cannot remember when). This.... individual :x ... who shall remain nameless, I hold fully and soley responsible for the predicament I now find myself mired in.

My wife quite out of the blue today suddenly begins to, well... interrogate me at length about the where-ases, what-fors & how-comes to why exactly I haven't picked up one of those ProEndorser Electras yet for her, as it really is the one model she really would like to have.

Seeing as how serenity, harmony and plain ol' peace 'n quiet are 3 key pillars of our life of matrimonial bliss together... plus the fact that these "ProEndorsers" rarely see the light of the open market ever... I am issuing a plea for any of my compassionate and stalwart friends here on the Forum who have been blessed to have ownership of an extra example they would be willing to consider parting with to please respond to my humble request.

I have a number of different guitars here that are available to combine in a swapping arrangement, Mats and non-Mats, as well as good old Yankee cabbage to offer as well.

Thank you all for listening. :up:

Nary an Endorser in my stable. Sorry Steve. Pass one along if you end up with two.

Sorry Ice if I created any problems for you on the home front, twas not my intention. While not the rarest of the Electra line, they are pretty sparse, and the few that haven't been modified are held in high regard by their owners.

If (and that's a big IF) I do sell one, Thorny gets first refusal as he has long ago expressed an interest in this model. Cheers, and Happy Hunting!!

P.S. Dave_G has four Cherry Sunbursts... not sure if he'll part with any of them though!

You know Pro, you didn't have to rub it in with a picture of three of them.

^^^THIS GUY... RIGHT HERE^^^ :rofl:




No harm done on your part Mike. I'm just feeling abit glum and taking my mind off of it with a public self-flogging. I completely understand and fully respect the sacred tradition of dibs and the rights of first refusal, fully 8 of the guits I have here (and 2 amps) have similar caveats attached to them.

I may have already gotten my first reply (in a roundabout way) so perhaps begging does work once in a great while.

Didn't anyone catch the fine print in my first reply?

Oh, and I pinched that .gif from you RSC... too funny! :lol:
