Westone in need of rescue (ebay UK)
This needs to go to someone with the skills to restore it, IMHO.

Holy crap on a cracker!
Sais the paint job on the front is decent! I'd hate to see the back close up.
Concord 1 yea?

Sounds fine that...
Kind of reminds me of the UK E bay fella that turns 7 stringers into 6 for people with sausage fingers....![Laughing](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_lol.gif)

Brushy One String is great. I must get around to buying one of his albums.

Not me. I'm just a regular twit. It takes a solid gold twit to paint a fretboard green.

I recently paid about $150 AUS to get all the bits of a concord 1 6 string to AUS from the UK
too much by many standards but to me when I get her together the price wont matter

I'm actually hoping that someone has got their mind set on buying and restoring this.

I was hoping that someone sufficiently skilled an experienced at restoration would buy it. That's definitely not me.

Hey Twit, someone has to do something to bring it back to life eh? You couldn't possibly make it look any worse than it is already!
