Very nice catch...definite score on that one!! Congrats! :D
I watched the last 2 minutes tick by on that one... price jumped pretty quick! Nice buy!
I think it was at 80-90 with ten seconds left, i payed alot less then what my max bid was for, surprised no one else stepped up on it, its one of the nicest WB'd I've seen, and it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Maybe the broken scale ran some of the high bidders off, ill be making some exotic wood scales for it my self so no worries for me.Quote:

This was a rather generic WB, but exceptional in the condition of its finish - it looks to be all-original polish. If this is the case please keep it that way.
Nice Old Greg picture, by the way.
Think a little bit of Maas would hurt it?Quote:
