Look at this thing!! Lordy, what a top. Just saw this in the gallery. Had to post. No clue if he still has it. But check the chevrons. Wow. It looks almost good enough to make me want to buy an H140 1st Ed.

I bought this from someone who posted a bunch of equipment on HOC about 3 years ago. Some of you may recall.

 

He was the brother-in-law of a musician who died suddenly and unexpectedly, drugs I have to expect but don't know. This seller was trying to help out the family but knew nothing about musical instruments.

 

After months of responses to his forum postings and CL listings, he was getting fatigued with guys dicking around with him, not showing up at their appointments to look at the items. He did not want to ship. I finally talked him in to it.

 

There was a good sized nitro burn on the neck and a cracked pick up ring. Pete Moreno took care of them beautifully.

 

Totonka bought it from me via eBay but picked it up in person with his homies. I'm glad he did. It looks much better in person than pictures can capture. I know he was happy with it.

Yeah, I always pictured in my mind the typical black beauty type of solid body. But jeez, this one is so over the top beautiful. It is in my current rotation right now. Heck, the missus even likes this one.

That is one of my favorite 140's.

 

There's also a fire engine red one that is drop dead gorgeous.

Hey... I've got a red 140. It has a great top , but the trans red somehow doesn't let it come through in photos easily. Here's a couple of pics that show some of the flame ..
