I was in a buffalo suburb called Lockport today and stumbled upon a mom and pop music store I never heard of before. It was closed on a Saturday because of course, it's a mom and pop store, hours are fucking ridiculous. Anyways....peep this....

Called this morning. They said it was on consignment for 700
I told them no. But if the seller would do 600 I'm in and game them my number.

They called me back 2 hours later and said yes.

So then I shine up my mustang1 amp that I havent used since liam was a baby, the original box, and a foot switch and show up unannounced with that for trade.

Venus out the door for 525

Does yours have a push pull pot?

This one does not and I cant remember if that was a feature

Neck is pretty chunky (to me, my preference is skinny).

No. Mine just has volume. Sounds like someone’s modded yours.

12 string venus, bear? ((drool))

They look kind of wonky but they’re great guitars.

that bridge looks a little out of place, but i totally dig the quirkiness of the venus aesthetic.

Congrats Rob! Love it! (intended pun)

I missed a 12 string black one last year, Parkway had it for $500, it went fast.

I bought mine from the classifieds here 10 years ago. Paid £150 for it.

Same pickups as the Jagstang. The neck pickup is heavenly.

I'd keep that one, I used to see them all the time in shops and now I never do.
