I just had a Michael Kelly broken by UPS. Since we have settled the claim, I can part it out. What's available? Well, new gold Grovers (F-5), a tailpiece, bridge, a fretboard with the Firefly inlay (all in one piece), an F-5 body, truss rod. I have no use for this stuff sooooo....how about this, the first person that offers $75 and $6 shipping or $86 gets it all.

I am not rising to this, I am stronger than this.
So, is there any MK finish imperfections? http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

UPS has messed up a few of my shipments as well. #After a few claims, I have switched carriers. #I sometimes think they don't care.

Yeah, Don and I could tell stories about what UPS did to some wood he worked on for me. I think UPS actually stands for Unlimited Package Smashing, or U-Parting w/Something...I could go on. I am sorry to see they did this to an instrument, but not surprised. Maybe someone needs to create an instrument courier service.

An instrument courier service? Hmmmm. We'll have to really step up the MAS pace to keep it profitable.

I'm glad you found a buyer. I begged my wife, but with her superior sense of discretion she said no, reminding me that if I tried to fix it I would probably get frustrated and wreck it all. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Thanks John. Super quick shipping info by UPS no less! I guess they have already done the dirty work on this one. I hope to have some fun and maybe learn a few things about construction with these http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
