Jackson Custom Shop FLAME and SMOKE Ltd Rhoads

[Shawn]

Well, sort of.. Its a custom shop LTD, and it is apparently on this plane that landed in Philadelphia last nite...ON FIRE! It was on its way to me overnite from Pittsburgh....heavily insured thank goodness.

I was laughing to myself last nite thinking "MAN! Some poor fukkers are gonna be missing their shipments"....Looks like I am one of those poor fukkers...They cant locate it's whereabouts currently, but have identified it as being on this plane..I think I see a headstock sticking out...

Wow, dude, that sucks. I hope it's ok. I'd hate to see a rare axe like that bite the dust.

Dude, that sucks. Better a planeload of stuff than a planeload of people, though.

UPS will probably try to deny your insurance claim anyway, though. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] j/k

But that sucks heaps, Shawn, just glad it's insured and all people are ok.

Absolutely, 100 percent well said. I have seen people on here just about lose their minds over a broken this or missing that, not me. It borders on pretty funny actually. I mean, what are the odds?

This may bring to a whole new level the description " case is a little smoky"....

Just think, if it burns some, but is still playable, you'd have a one of a kind, like Zappa's Strat! Just think of the looks you'd get at a gig. "I'm so metal, my guitar burned to a crisp when I grabbed it!"
