Just bought a new guitar...by accident

Hey all, a little warning - things go for stupidly cheap on ebay! dont do what i do and think "aaah, it'll never go that cheap" and bid anyway! its a silly thing to do.

this is the 2nd guitar ive bought that way!

first guitar is my pride and joy, an RG3120 - i wanted a new guitar when i bought this but i wasnt expecting to win it with a £600 bid!

so, just now ive bought a GAK B-Stock Ibanez Iceman IC400 (http://www.ibanez.co.jp/eg_page.php?AREA_ID=3&PAGE_ID=503&COLOR=CL01&MODEL_NO=IC400)

for the grand price of £165 including delivery, the auction didnt say the neck was in a bad way so it should be fine.
these guitars new cost £450 at the least usually, so i'm not too bothered about it, but i dont need it! so will probably fix up the damage and sell it straight on!

just thought i would share that, my stupidity bought me another guitar!

Cant say i particularly like the styling :confused:

not many people do, i like peculiar shaped guitars though

very similar to the paul stanley mirror guitar (iirc he didnt actually use ibanez, it was another company that i cant remember the name of.)

Pwnt tbh

Oh well you now know that you'll have to be more careful frivolously bidding on stuff from now on

At least bid on an attractive guitar hehe, j/k

Am I the only one that likes Icemans (Icemans? Icemen? Why do so many guitars have names that are awkward to pluralise?)? I think they look great!

I did that the other day while buying a new amp I accidently said to the guy whats the best price for the Ibanez SA260 in flame maple and then said oh go on add it to the amp, and ended up walking out with a Randall RG75 and a SA260 all by "accident"
