ya gang, I saw this, don't really want it because I already have one, so let's hope someone else here sees it and buys it.

however at the end if there are no bids, I guess I'll just buy it for the hell of it. :lol: :mrgreen:

well although I appreciate that but on here some people own basses that one of them cost as much as ALL of mine combined, and have 20 of those....

HOWEVER, for using and collecting Jacksons..perhaps for now ;)
mine futura is ugly candyapple red but for the bands I play in color is not a factor


and now the futura ad is displaying a different error now it just dosent say the typical "auction ended early" when someone takes the ad off cause it's still in my watchlist with 4 days to go- - i dunno.

and ya PM me and let's talk I don't use that black one. It was a spare in case I got drunk and whacked the neck on the white one I have but those days are done. And if some reason it does come back you could still buy it.

ya just wondering if you had any Kramers or something that you wanted another pointyhead to kinda go with the theme.

the thing that attracted me to the futura was the super similarity to a guild pilot body long before the futura came out. it's wired for VBT not VVT just in case you wanted to know, and sounds just like my other ones. I'd be curious if you do get it to see if it has the same pickup windings as mine because that one is a 92 and mine is a 94.
( some units came with a 11k p and a 8.5k j and some came with a 11k p and a 11k j, which is what mine has )

well good luck rat, you don't have me competing for it. ( not to say there are others )...lol

and a bit of trivia?
it is from the same timeframe as all the rest of the professional models MIJ, but the lefys did not get the extra sticker because it wouldn't fit with the reversehead.

WHOA, HOLD THE PHONE ---LOOK WHAT IS BACK

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jackson-Futura- ... 4ab414bb94

Dude I would PM him TODAY and ask WTF happened before. Maybe he will give it to you for 250 and dump the auction?

don't be stupid this time around if he says no to 250, bid 275 and get it this time.
I PM'ed him also and asked what happened ( probably a no-pay ).

I love how i am being phrased as a "no payer" I was the one that won the auction, but constantly when i kept emailing and asking for paypal info for the transfer he didnt reply, and when he did he said something along the line of "the seller doesnt want this"? What does he mean doesnt want this? I actually asked him in beforehand of international shipping and such, and then after refusing to let me pay, he uploaded the auction again before i had recieved my strike, so at the time he uploaded the auction again, i was still entitled to the actual item.

So i recieved a strike by him and i couldnt even pay for the bass i wanted? That he confirmed before the auction that it was fine? Thats fair and square, so i decided to contact ebay support about legal rights because i dont think i was being treated fairly
