    Did I do OK?

    So, I'm a bass player, but ever since the Open House I've been dying for an EBMM guitar with a piezo bridge. I picked this up on EvilBay today:

    Other than the fact that it doesn't have a piezo bridge, it looks like you picked up a nice guitar.

    Looks great!

    Not only am I a bass player, I'm also an idiot. That was the wrong link. Here's the correct one:

    Dammit. Nothing like feeling stupid to make you feel more stupid, I say.

    Haha, no harm done.

    That one's much better for ya- no Floyd Rose to mess with, those sweet sweet MM90s and piezo.

    A heartfelt congratulations- looks like an awesome guitar.

    Yah man, great price and the Axis Sports are excellent and the piezo on top of that!!!

    You did sweet!!!

    Though I don't think it's trans red, it look more like a red sparkle or candy apple red.

    Of course we'll need some pictures once you get it ASAP!!!
