Well I never ever thought I would dream of parting ways with this guitar but due to some stupid financial issues I have gotten myself into recently I have no choice :( So heres your chance to own one now, no wait - shes done , built and ready to go.
At least I can rest easy knowing I will have TJ build me a pearl white and gold model sometime next year! Plus he only lives a couple hours from me so maybe this time I can be a little more involved in the building process.
As most of you know I have had this for several years ( for the newbies go to "our gear" and then "the guitars in my Vinnie corner" or "my ever expanding collection" ). I dont know what woods he used (besides ebony for the fretboard obviously) but I told him to cut no corners and use nothing but the best on this build. I know it has a true Floyd, EMG 81, a mini toggle EMG booster , fully bound neck and headstock, etc. The action is unbelievble on this thing. Even though I knew it would probably never be played I wanted to make sure it was still perfect. I have had many custom shop guitars over the years from everybody in the business - Gibson, Jackson, ESP, etc and I have never ever had one that had this fast of a neck on it and such effortless action, TJ did an AMAZING job on this guitar. It is literally brand new still - I have probably played it for 3 10 minute periods in total. I just dont feel worthy touching it! Just looking at it takes you back to a special time in your life. Other than that it hangs on my wall as pictured where I gaze and marvel at it day and night. Still has the plastic on the rear covers I just noticed too. My guitar room is heat and humidity controlled 24/7 so no worries. I would sell it including shipping, insurance, and paypal fee's for $2100. Obviously if its going outside of the USA then I will have to charge accordingly for the shipping rates. Let me know if you have any questions or need other pics etc.

You and TJ did a great job on that beast and I'm sure that one of the members here will help you give it a good home!

Best wishes

Kev

P.S. - This is pretty much what Susie Q was working overtime to be able to afford. She can step up and find this really affordable and attainable. Calling out to Susie Q LMFAO :-)

Suzie Q, hah!!!....good one Kev.

Ooh, what a nice one. My Monster VVV also had amazing action, it was incredible how low but playable it was, just how I like it too!

A bargain for someone in the US, or even OS with the extra shipping counted in.

You have convinced me. I must get a Monster now. Its solid body too, oh my. How much for shipping for it?
I am going to save, I think saving for a $2100 guitar I will be there faster than $9000 :lol:

Nope no case. I didn't really want to pay extra for one anyways. I knew the guitar would never leave my house , it always hangs on display like you see in most of my pics.

hahah. how does the polar sound. I bought some crazy ass poplar the other day. It has a bad reputation amongst purists but I believe unless Carvin told me wrong that VV's Carvin body (or wings) were made from poplar and I hear that was his favourite one. Maybe the Carvin was all maple but I was told poplar but it could be unreliable.

The poplar I bought was rainbow poplar that turns color naturally if certain nutrients are in the soil.. Image
i also have some candy box elder i was going to have made into a top or a solid guitar one day .. looks like this a bit Image

I'm not a big DoubleV Guitar Fan but it would be a shame if one of the members here didn't buy this and keep it in the family. TJ and MP did a beautiful job on this one!

Hey Susie Q,
This is the one that you were working all those over time hours for and it won't cost you over $9,000 and will be delivered promptly when you pay in full. I have serious doubts that if anyone ever paid Cusano the $9,000 + case + shipping for one of the Guitarmaggedon Guitars whether they would actually even receive the item that they paid for.

This will be a great and nearly brand new keepsake for the lucky winner!

Kev

Good one Kev, Vinnies, dear, dear, dear, dear friend Suzie Q (who disappears for months on end until he remembers her logon details) is just the customer for this one!

In between racist slurs she used to tell us how much overtime and how hard she was working to acquire her very own "pink pleasure", as she put it.

I will say for the record that Vincent Cusano sure found a picture or 2 of a pretty hot brunette woman to be the face of Susie Q for him. I recall a picture of a slender short haired brunette posing on the hood of a car. Hhhhhmmm, "Pink Pleasure". Sounds at least like Cusano can still come up with some good titles and maybe even some good lyrics but can he play guitar????

Hey Vinnie, how about you step up and release a new album that you can start with the following titles:
Heavy Metal Poontang, Cockteaser, Ride the Serpent, Himalaya, Brainsaw and of course now your newest creation "Pink Pleasure" :lol:

"Pink Pleasure" :lol: that's right up his fucking alley! At least until Sammy is all the way up his alley :-)
