I want to thank the BSG Worldwide Family for the great response to the BSG MISSION launched this past weekend! We made our Washburn installment goal and THEN some!! You folks are amazing!!

In this 10 minute video, I get the change to show off a few USA Custom Shop Evil Twin Idols that BSG commissioned. But- here is an opportunity to acquire a Brand New 2006 USA Custom Shop EVIL TWIN Guitar at an extreme discount. The ‘Extreme Discount’ ends at Thursday at Midnight.

Billy Clubs and Fallen Idols…Anyone?

Back in 2005, I worked with Washburn to commission custom runs of high quality Korean Idol guitars. Each run was 50 numbered pieces each. Included in these runs were the ‘Fallen Idol’ guitars and the ‘Billy Club’ guitars. Well – Washburn found a few of these in their warehouse. I knew we did not get all 50 of each run, however, my assumption was that they may have been damaged in transit from Korea.

Seems – they were just mislabeled and tucked away at Washburn!

So…here we go!!

Thanks for checking these out!!

'New' 2005-06 KOREAN Washburn ET Guitars – $975

Yes- you read the title correctly! BSG has about 13 late 2005, early 2006 KOREAN built Washburn WI66ANC Idols – IN STOCK – and available. These are KOREAN built – not the more recent Indonesian made ETs. These are the GOOD ONES! AND – BSG is seling these off, with hard case, Nick ‘banner’, BSG swag and UPS Ground in the USA and Canada…. $975. This is the ‘direct’ pricing. eBay and Gbase listings will be higher. Hell, the recent Indonesian made ET’s of lesser quality have MAP pricing for dealers of 1050 USD! So – you get a BETTER guitar – for less. These are thick body idols, maple quilt top, REAL zakk wylde EMG humbuckers, ebony fretboard, binding…. the whole deal. Once these 13 are gone – they are gone.

Special thanks to Dan Speicher for his video and photo work for this latest installment of the BSG Video Update!

Have at it my friends…and thanks for all the continued interest and support of Boogie Street Worldwide Guitars!

Zakk Wylde GUITAR VAULT for Sale

Back in 2007, a fantastic custom guitar case builder, Jeff McMurray of BandMate USA, hand built two large guitar vaults. One was for Zakk Wylde and one was for Zakk’s bandmate, Nick Catanese.

These Vaults were extremely – EXTREMELY – well made. Jeff used the finest woods, hinges, tolex, crushed velvet, interior lighting, casters – the whole deal.

When the two guitar vaults reached LA, they were dismissed by a roadie for Black Label Society. Reasons for this dismissal are puzzling. But regardless, the Catanese camp retrieved the cases before this roadie discarded them. And thank goodness this happened because what a tremendous sin it would have been for these guitar vaults to have been dismissed.

Nick has the vault made for him with his logo, etc. And I have acquired the vault which was made originally for Zakk.

This vault has been kept inside at the Boogie Street Guitars offices in Pittsburgh. We have used the vault for high-end guitar storage as well as background for guitar photography as well as a great background for our Boogie Street video productions and promotions.

As I change the Boogie Street offices around and we reconfigure our operations here, I’ve made the decision to put this guitar vault up for sale.

BSG’s photographer Dan Speicher has taken the following pictures. The case is outstanding condition. The only ‘fault’ is a tear in the tolex on the back. This happened during shipping from LA to Pittsburgh back in 2007.

The vault is amazing. Jeff did such a great job on these two pieces. The vault is roadworthy. But in my opinion, this is THE perfect guitar display case for any gameroom, music room or den. It’s so ‘rock and roll’ and it has the interior recessed lighting and it’s on wheels so it can be moved.

This guitar vault is heavy. As shown in the pictures, there is a front ‘door’ which comes with the vault so it can be ‘closed’.

The vault and the door are included. The BLS Vest, the guitars and SDMF straps pictured below are NOT part of the sale.

I will NOT ship this vault. I would like this to be picked up by the buyer. However – if the buyer wants to handle the shipping – completely – I’ll make the vault available for pickup by a carrier as long as the shipping cost and insurance liability is covered between the buyer and whatever carrier they choose. In short – once it leaves BSG – I don’t want the responsibility for it arriving safely.

This is a very, very cool piece of rock and roll memorabilia and it’s ready to be enjoyed and displayed in all it’s glory.

The asking price is 5500 USD and I’m considering offers close to that number. If this guitar vault sells – that’s great. If it does not sell – it does not sell. We will find a place for it in the new BSG office configuration. However, I’m willing to offer this custom guitar vault up for sale.

There you are! Thanks a ton for reading!
