It started out life as a sho bud maverick body. The undercarriage was in progress. Would've been an all pull changer if completed. Also had a unique sunburst paint job and Tonealigner pickup.
I know... its a long shot.

Yep, looks like Coop's old kitchen workshop..i got stories about him.
No, unfortunately, i haven't seen your Sho-Bud. However, if anyone has seen an LDG, stripped of its undercarriage while in Coop's possession before he died, lemme know.
It belongs to me. |

Greg, Contact me by email, I have that guitar. I inherited most of Coop's stuff, what wasn't stolen.

James, do you have the D12 Marlen I had at Coop's? Pretty wood?
If so, you can have it.

Thanx Chris, but such is not the case.
Have not heard back from Greg. Perhaps he is away from his computer. No biggee

Perhaps he passed out when he read that you have it!
He'll contact you when he revives.

I just spoke with James Morehead and this story has a happy ending. I will be getting this guitar back after all. Four and a half years later! Not only that but James finished up that which Coop was not able to. Next week is my birthday... I think I just got an early present.

We'd love to see some pictures when available. I know it's none of my business, but I'm hoping James did OK on this exchange. RP
