BLOGRONAUT: INTRONAUT BATTLE-TESTED GIBSON GUITAR FOR SALE!
Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 at 1:00pm by Sacha Dunable
I greet you Metalsucks readers this week with a somewhat melancholy blog entry, as I am here to announce the sale of one of my favorite guitars ever. I bought this Gibson L6-S a little more than a year ago and pretty much fell in love with it. It has an all maple body and neck, which means a brighter attack than the usual mahogany that most Gibsons have. This is also one of the most comfortable guitars I’ve ever played. This thing has been my main guitar since I bought it, meaning it’s been played at probably a hundred Intronaut shows, and was the guitar used on our last record.
I’m selling it because I need something a bit more complementary to Dave’s sound, and I can’t afford to keep this and buy a new one, so it’s ebay bound. For full details and specs, check out the ebay listing. I promise you this is a way better guitar than some LTD or Schecter piece of firewood sold for the same price (cool cherry red flame maple top, dork!). Plus, there is lots of metal history soaked into the finish here. If these dings could talk!
Additionally, if you have something cool to offer to trade, I will seriously consider all offers and even pull the auction if you have something I want. The auction ends Sunday, February 16th!

You should go hock your shit somewhere else.
You’re one of those no-fun types aren’t you? I would totally go for this if I was made of money, how often does the actual band sell you their guitar?
I’ll trade a Business Communications textbook, an Iron Maiden “The Trooper” poster, a Fender Guitars sticker, a bag of Burger King Onion Rings Flavored Snacks (open), Gibson Les Paul (used, XBox 360 version), and an autographed picture of myself. This is one heck of an offer.
i’ll trade you a metallica death magnetic coffin box, 1 cannibal corpse tomb of the mutilated cassette, the first 3 van halen albums on cassette, and a figurine of lars ulrich (with drumsticks and headband)
hahahaha, email me about the onion rings snacks trade,….
I’d definitely love me a Gibby with a maple neck, but I have to take offense with ragging on LTD’s and Schechters. Those are some pretty great metal guitars for a low price (maybe excluding the LTD 50 series, ’cause those are basically throwaway axes).
Also – out of curiosity what are looking at next?
Boo to Gibson.
Yay to Schecter.
That is all.
I’ll be your man servant for 2 years in return for that guitar.
