I wasn't being an arsehole about posting nice things, the whole point of a guitar forum is posting nice things, this is a straw man argument. I was being an arsehole because I found such unabashed discussion of value distasteful.
With all due respect, why does it matter to you? Or, why would anyone care what you think?

Also with all due respect (it's not a lot, attempted beef-reheaters don't warrant it) I'm fine with you or anyone else not caring what I think, so all is peachy. ;D

But then if you're not helping, why post at all?

I remember when Yannis got his Les Paul Custom. I know that he lusted after that guitar for the longest time. I even know someone based here in Ireland on another guitar forum who I suspect pointed it out to Zhivago (also on another forum). At the time that he found it I'm sure that it hurt to buy that guitar - and I also remember being made up for him when he found that guitar, knowing how much it meant to him and knowing that it was a dream fulfilled kind of thing.

That '56 LP custom coming to me was like the universe coming together and bringing it to me. The person I sold my Historic '54 Custom pointed it out to me, and he was from Ireland, so it must be the same person we are thinking about. A trued gent!. It was an emotional time getting that guitar after probably 20 years. My heart still skips a beat when I pop the case a good 5 years later.

Congrats, Kev. Your NGD threads never disappoint, and this is your best one yet. Honestly it's all you need — there isn't a more perfect guitar. :-*
Todd always gets to the heart of things. Wonderful guitar you have there.

I don't care if I get shot down for saying this but I think the forum can do without posts about your first world problems.
Consider yourself shot down by me. That was fucking rude.

I'm sure they're cheering all over the third world for you sticking it to Kevin, hero. Finally, they say. Someone gets it.

Way to go, champ. I see you apologized, though. I mollified my comments accordingly.
Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.
