VH eBay items

The guy selling the framed 1984 stuff is out of his mind. Even if I had all the money in the world I’d never pony up $4000 for a picture frame and 4 sigs. Crazy.

i’ve got the Green, Black, and Cream color version of that poster when they played here in South Dakota…..but seriously $800.00????? I have an original (from the day, not a recent reprint) March 1974 “formally known as Mammoth” back yard party flyer signed and its appraisal didn’t even come in at $800. Damn some people.

I have that shirt but it was a 3/4 length sleeve. Bought it at a store back around 1984.

guitard: Maybe this t-shirt has been sitting in a box, in a cool room somewhere for the last 33 years – and that’s why it looks brand spanking new.

Or maybe …. it really is brand spanking new.

hehehe he said spankin’

Did you buy that new? Unfortunately around here most have a franky that cost much much less than those Fender Franky’s. The one I have is as close in paint and materials used as the Fender with the proper reflectors, 1971 Quarter, a working single coil, Frankenstein pick up etc. The only thing not up to snuff on mine is that it has a Floyd Rose Special and not an original. It cost me $600 USD. I’ve seen yours on ebay and the extras your throwing in are great. It has to kill you to give it up. I can understand you not wanting to take a hit on it but I believe they have sold for much less on ebay than the $20,000 USD you are asking. I think I remember hearing $11,000. Anyway, nice guitar and goodies thrown in. Good luck with it.

Mikey, it was PP’s collection that prompted me to contact him on ebay (still think he should sell the goodies separate, first dibs on the vinyl PP LOL!) I told him about the vht fam.
Regarding the disc your on about I think it was a play in the style of LP like the Curt Mitchell stuff, I’ll see if I can find a store that was selling it on the net they had a good description of it.

Yes I bought it new, pre-ordering via a Fender dealer in the UK, as only 25 of the 300 were scheduled for Europe. It was one of those mid-life crisis type moments dovetailing conveniently with having the money in my pocket at the time and the opportunity to own an iconic part of my musical DNA. On the plus side it was cheaper than plastic surgery or a mistress and I don’t ever regret buying it. It has brought me an immense amount of pleasure. It really is gorgeous.

I have left the listing open to offers as well, so maybe someone will be hitting the same type chemical imbalance that I did, round about now! Great also to know that they same can be achieved at a fraction of the cost, should I manage to move it on.

pondenperson: Hi, Cant work out how to upload pics on to the forum, but the album is called How to become a Superstar VAN HALEN – THE ROCK GUITAR

There are several of those around. I know of one for Gary Moore, and one for Yngwie Malmsteen.
