1 - I think he is?
2 - Actually be able to ask him about production and post tips and all that seeing as my Dad has absolutely no idea.
But I could probably just ask Freewave that anyway.
I'm debating whether to sell a bunch of my stuff to raise money for an insanely awesome custom guitar called a 'Bad Apple'. They're a really respected Australian custom brand that are all hand made and generally pretty expensive, but they're doing a limited run of a model called a 'Hatemachine'. It looks incredible and has an amazing blue and white colourscheme option. And apart form just the looks, the build quality is absolutely top notch and they play incredibly. The only problem is that in order to get it I have to sell two of my guitars along with some other general stuff. I'm fine with selling off one of, but the other I'm really having second thoughts about.
The one I don't want to sell is a Korina Flying V - one of these

Only problem is that the pickups are faulty and I bought new ones to replace them. When I thought I'd get the Bad Apple, I placed the value of the V at $350, and the pickups at $200, and along with other stuff that I'm selling, that brought me right up to the $1100 price mark for the BA. If I decide not to sell the V, it means I cant sell it's pickups - taking away that $500 potential trade value. I could easily supplement the $500 with money I earn from work and all, but at the moment what I earn from work is going to a new Car fund - which is why I decided to sell stuff off for the Bad Apple in the first place
So my question is what should I do? Sell the V with the other stuff to reach the benchmark as the original plan? Keep my stuff and not get a Bad Apple? Keep the V and supplement cash from work earnings, as the guys At BA guitars have agreed to do a payment plan to help out?
I need a legit answer to this. While this may not be the best thread and I may repost it in the Discussion thread, this thread is called the Answer a Question thread and not every question has to be a silly one.
