Did you get it off some then recently de-brained glue connoisseur?
There has to be a drummer out there somewhere...
No. That was actually the only piece of equipment I didn't get that way. I got a Crate bass head and cabinet, a Marshall half stack, a carvin pa with EV speakers, a vintage carvin travelling mixer, two drums sets, and most of those guitars from debrained glue connisseurs who found themselves in debt at some point in time. I used to be a walking pawn shop...
My travelling Rogers set:
I also have an old matching Pearl 5 piece that is much nicer than this one, so it's not at my house.
The story of the guitar as I remember it:
I got it from a good friend of mine from the wrestling team. His whole family all lived in one house and worked at the restaurants they owned. One of the brothers I didn't hang with stole a bunch of money from the restaurant. He bought all the guitar stuff with the money. As his punishment, the family took the stuff from him and sold it to me, not caring how much they received for it. They all knew me well and knew I had just started playing music. It was more a lesson to him than a recovery of funds deal. I checked at Guitar center after I got it and the guitar without the case was $549. I think we settled on $75 because that is what it cost to join a health club with a jacuzzi and sauna we were going use`to cut weight during the season.
