but, a heads up tip...i will frag a very small piece in the next 6 months to a year and will post it on ebay where i will get more than what i paid for it.
just keep your eyes peeled and...YOU TOO can own your very own albino encrusting montipora...well, a very small piece of it!

it's a violin. my fav violin actually...a carlo bergonzi...hence my nick!

there are a lot of stringed instrument stores in san fran. i remember dropping in a few several, several years ago...just be careful not to get jipped. and always, get a few days to take it home to audition it. then get a second appraisal if you are truly interested in it. the stringed instrument world is even worse for cheating than the coral world.

hey, wait a sec, i have a cello in my garage that i recall has some label in there that says 'Stradivarius' or something like that. it is not in a case and at the bottom of several very heavy boxes. i never bothered moving it due to it's difficult to reach position. plus, the cello is made out of wood and in a form of hollowed out boat. so, when my garage floods, it should help keep the boxes dry and afloat!

very cool. I play the violin too, since I was about 8 years old. But recently stopped. My Violin sucks, but I had no money to get a better one. I have a crappy Jay Hyde. =(

sorry amy,

money talks!!!

i am anticipating doubling (possibly tripling) my 'investment' with a 1/8th inch of a frag.

you have every equal chance as everybody when i put the frag up on ebay! bidding should be pretty heated in the last few minutes!
