Well, Yannis, you're going to be very pleased with me. I've bought Heavenstreet's black AVRI JM. Detailed pics as soon as it arrives, but here's a preview:

Nah, it's staying stock for a while. Black and tort is SO nice.

Good score, Rob!!  I'm glad I didn't have the money, or I would have jumped on that.  ::)  Heavenstreen lives like 80 miles (what is that,like 130 km? :P) from where I am...
Damn kids, get off my lawn!

Sad to see her go, but I've got a new baby (no, not human) and she is jealous of blackie.

If only I can sell this Orange and get both shipped before I go home to the East Coast.  Help?  Haha!

Oh, it's been more than 6 months! Pretty much ever since I've known Yannis (back in the days of the FDP in '04), I've craved a black JM. His old one was super nice too... I tell you, that boy's responsible for more GAS than a cartload of curry....

you're all very welcome!! :D  8) 8) 8)




and if it makes anyone feel better, I have the worst case of GAS at the moment...it's my usual re-occuring blast from the past...a '54 RI Les Paul Custom!  :o

I've dreamed of one since I was like...12!

Ever since I saw a pic of Izzy Stradlin from Guns N' Roses with one!
