Suhr Auction Warning!


This has happened to me before…. But this is the first time with a Suhr!!

A word of warning!!

I don’t believe this guy has this guitar…. As it belongs to ME!!

#7376541331

There is the minor chance that it is cut from the same wood and he is confused… but I will let you judge for yourself



I love quirks in quilt….. this piece was destined to become a Suhr Std HSS… note the ‘scoops’ behing the Single coils and behind the trem. Look how the quilt perfectly follows the contours of the trem posts!! To my eyes the same guitar…. Proceed with caution!!

Thanks

Tim

Re: Suhr Auction Warning!


Yeah, looks the same to me too, not the same serial number as yours is it? Have you owned the guitar from new? If so, do the pictures he's got look familiar to you?

The inlays have "light spots" on the same location as the one in your pic, that's rare to say the least. I'd say it's a bogus auction.

Perhaps you should contact e**y about this auction, since the whole thing looks shady.

Re: Suhr Auction Warning!


Is that your house that the guitar is in? It looks similar but why not check the serial number like lgm suggested before calling it a possible scam. I'm not attacking you or anything, just asking.

Re: Suhr Auction Warning!


I was 101% sure... but it is always worth double checking before you drag someone through the dirt could have been a confused newbie!! I had a guy once who borrowed my pics to show a similar guitar... I didn't see that this guy quoted the serial too!!

I have checked.... The pics are stolen off the net from the previous owner (a nice guy!). I have reported it... don't bid unless you fancy losing your hard earned!!

Thanks guys!!

Quilt top pattern looks exactly like yours so I guess atleast that says pretty much.
