Scary MOJO left in guitar.

Post by johnny cake »

Have you ever bought a second-hand guitar that had some serious MOJO left in it from a previous owner that freaked you out. X file stuff !

There is a haunted SG on my local CL - but not sure what's up with it.

What's the story on yours?

Sorry, was waiting for other MOJO feedback. I bought a Gibson 135 on EBAY 5 years ago and when it arrived, tuned it up and started noodling up and down the neck to check the frets out, this is after 1/2 an hour on my Herman Li Ibanez and Kerry King BCC RICH so I was not expecting what was about to happen. Have to finish later, mums calling me for dinner, It's a Sunday roast. Back soon. :-t

Sorry fellas, anyway the Addams family " hand" thing took hold and I really had no control over what I was playing, in fact I was starting to feel uneasy about it, like an out of body experience,I decided to go with the flow and see what happens,chords I had never played before started to happen all over the place and some long casual runs that joined up perfectly over 14 frets. After 10 minutes things subsided and back to normal.I sat there thinking "What THE FXXX JUST HAPPENED THERE". What happened was, I WOKE UP.!!! :zzz:

I have never owned a sports jacket with leather patches on the elbows,I don't smell like broken biscuits, I don't leave my strings on for 5 years so they mellow, I don't turn my tone down,and I have not been down to the cross-roads, although I might get there for some fiddle lessons at which I suck.That cherry red Gibson 135 is quiet now.It had one tune in its memory to give to somebody and I am glad it was me. True story.I even contacted the EBAY seller to see if he knew the previous owner,alas to no avail. Anyone want to make a sundance short film, go for it. Cheers j. :rawk:

Once bought a project guitar that was missing the jackplate and had a mouse nest in the wiring cavity. No, LITERALLY a mouse nest. Mouse included.

Dunno if I'd call that mojo though.

And seriously, you really do smell like broken biscuits.
