You gotta let us know if you keep it or not. Inquiring minds and all
that.

Ha - Now I see why all the arguing about how great the borys was!

I just googled Mario Bearegard,went to a few sites and interviews and
he's one serious builder.
That should be one fantastic Axe.

I know. I was just joking. I've heard nothing but glowing reviews of
both the borys and the beauregard guitars. Wish I could afford either
one!

Aghhh!!!!! I just got an email from Mike Fuller's Vintage Guitars in

Texas apologizing for the fact that the Beauregard had already been
sold last week and they forgot to take it off the website so they're
refunding the money. Hopefully they're not BSing me because someone
gave them a better offer.
It's problematic buying instruments and equipment online.
I bought an AI Coda last week for $450 off ebay and it turned out to
be a Clarus that was mislabeled by AI!

van,
being from Texas I kinda know Fuller's and have dealt with him. I don't
think he'd BS yall on a guitar sell. He pretty straight up in his business
and has been around for a while. If he told yall that the guitar was
previously sold, then that's what happened. Just to let ye know.
