Debating On This One

[custom53]

Don't know if this has been posted before but I just saw it. I am real close to bidding on it as a player not as a collector... Someone bid on it to keep me from it...!

Why didn't he keep it original and buy an Axis...?

I clicked the button that said.....

"someone needs to kick the seller in his balls"

Whats with all the butchering of these Balls.

Obviously not worth much but if you can get it for a steal then why not.

I saw this one yesterday and though it might be worth bidding on as I only saw the headstock photo and as everyone knows T-Purple is probably the hardest one to find holding most of its color as the fading seemed to effect them the most. I almost fell off my chair though after seeing that butcher job. Wonder if he played in the same band as the guy who destroyed the Silo.Just a real shame.

I'll admit my purple EVH has a lot of wear and tear, dings, scratches, discolored trem and it's faded like no other---but what that guy did, Christ almighty!

If it plays and sounds good the "mod" wouldn't really bother me.Its still an EBMM EVH.

Sheesh. It's apparently Butcher an EBMM day on eBay. There are plenty of us out there who would give these guitars a good home in their original condition.

I agree it's a shame that somebody would do that to a perfectly good high end guitar, or not at least do a better job but, lets face it, it's not gonna be collectors bidding on this one.

Somebody out there won't care about the "customisation". They'll buy the guitar at a price they were happy to pay, it'll play great and it'll STILL be a '93 trans purple EVH, even if it is a little beaten, worn, and butchered. The birdseye on that neck looks gorgeous to boot!
