As some of you may remember I lost my uncle on May 31st.

http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?p=1398887

Unfortunately and sadly my uncle's life insurance did not cover his death. So now my grandma is stuck with his final bills and cremation fees. With the help of our local community, family and friends we have covered a large portion of the final costs. But there is still $3,000 of outstanding costs owed for burial fees.

Please do not low ball me since I do not and will not profit on these items. Any money over $3,000 is going to my grandma to help give her some of the money she lost in the wake of this situation.

As a disclaimer I know little to nothing besides what I read online about these guitars and the amp. I have no musical talent nor experience. So any advice would be appeciated. Please add 2% paypal fees!

This is the personal property of my late uncle, please do not steal my pictures!

Bump for some beautiful Gibson guitars. Try to stay away from the guitar stores as they pay pennies on the dollar. Ebay or the guitar forums are best. I kept scolling down hoping for an equal quality bass....

UPDATE 7/11/2007

I recieved a few more items from my grandma today. It's non-car related but non-the-less first dibs to Zilvians before ebay.


Pioneer VSX-515 Reciever
