That auction is 'iffy' to me... the pics in the link, pic 1 & pic 2 are different guitars... one's an expensive copy one's cheap...

It's not really an auction because they're built to order, that's why there's different guitars being shown in the pics. He was even including the concord model copy with this listing before. This has been his way of taking orders, and so this has been relisted on eBay for well over a year now. The e-mail he was using when I bought mine from him last year was basicswatch(at)yahoo.com, so you could try that. Not sure why you're not getting a response though, he always responded pretty much right away at the time.

I've been watching these for a while... they make the one in the second pic which is not as wide and is actually a poor copy of a V, being so narrow. The first one is a normal V shape... that's just the most obvious difference.

Glad to help, and congrats!! A few people on this board have bought it from him, myself included, and everyone has loved it so far. You'll have to add a pic to the thread that everyone has been posting pics of theirs on after you get yours. Great early Christmas present!

I'm sure they are nice guitars and I give them credit for making an affordable copy... I hope you enjoy your new guitar.

I know this is old, but did you ever get the guitar? How did it play? :)

I know this thread is ancient and not about GMW PDVs per se... but I wanted to share this picture from GMW, so I'm bumping the thread!
