Subject: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 20 Jan 13 - 12:07 PM I hear there are two Apollo guitars owned by Gordon Bok for sale. Any interest? |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 20 Jan 13 - 12:35 PM Finally gave up on it huh? Calling it quits? Just a flash in the pan.........I figured as much............. Does he have any of those promotional Gordon Bok Model fans that rotate and turn on towards the morning left over? They aren't bad even though they don't work at night. This could be a real chance for me to make some serious bucks off the Special GB model Amish-Australian Pitchfork Moustache Tuner but the laws have changed on Rosewood now and I can't get it cheap enough to make anymore of them.........***sigh***............... |

|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 20 Jan 13 - 12:51 PM Oh, definitely Bill, they really are. That is what I think makes it obvious that Bok is giving up on the whole folkie thing. Plus, I think I may have seen an interview by him with the WSJ about the possibility of working with the Bank of America although I might be wrong on that............ Spaw |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Leadfingers Date: 20 Jan 13 - 12:53 PM I COULD be interested , but I imagine I couldnt afford one |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 20 Jan 13 - 01:04 PM Hey....He's going out of bussiness. You might be able to get 'em cheap Man........... Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 20 Jan 13 - 02:10 PM HE'S NOT GOING OUT OF BUSINESS! He simply has more guitars than he needs. If interested, go to: Gordon@gordonbok.com. We have two of Nick's guitars and I say there is no finer at any price. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Will Fly Date: 20 Jan 13 - 02:25 PM Looking at his website, his guitars look very reasonably priced. Compare his prices with those of English luthiers like Nick Benjamin or Stefan Sobell. Also fabulous makers. |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Murray MacLeod Date: 20 Jan 13 - 02:27 PM Still crazy after all these years, eh Spaw ? btw, not that it has anything to do with this thread, but there is a British trained racehorse over here called CAPTAIN KENDALL who is doing really well, has won its last two starts and IMO is destined for big things this year. I think of kendall every time I see the horse run. Unlike his namesake, the horse has unfortunately had his balls removed :-( |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 20 Jan 13 - 07:43 PM Crazy keeps it going Murrray...... Spaw |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 21 Jan 13 - 10:05 AM "HE'S NOT GOING OUT OF BUSINESS! He simply has more guitars than he needs." Now I know there's something funny going on, Kendall. No man ever has more guitars than he needs. |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Wesley S Date: 21 Jan 13 - 01:49 PM Is he giving up the guitar for the ukulele? Trading them in for a Taylor.....? |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Art Thieme Date: 21 Jan 13 - 05:44 PM Gordon, So sorry not to have been, at least, touching base in a couple of years. I guess to touch base I would need to run the bases ----- and running is out. Love to you and Carol, Art and Carol Thieme |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: maeve Date: 21 Jan 13 - 05:46 PM Hi, Art! I'll give your message to Gordon. I'm happy to see you "here". Maeve |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Midchuck Date: 21 Jan 13 - 06:26 PM Kendall, are they both 12s? I don't need another 12, but if there's a six available, I fear for my own self-control... P. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: katlaughing Date: 21 Jan 13 - 07:30 PM I'm still wondering just how Murray knows Kendall is intact!?**bg** Good luck on the sales, Gordon. kat |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 21 Jan 13 - 07:35 PM Peter, e mail him and ask. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 21 Jan 13 - 10:19 PM Well, when you're going out of business you get desperate so I'd be sure he just didn't chop off 6 strings. I don't know for sure he would do something like that but if you recall he slipped those cheap fans through without a UL listing and the songbooks were not bound but in a cheap paper folder. He also tried to screw me out of extra royalties on the Amish-Australian Pitchfork Moustache Tuners which I honored him with in that special model. He went for more than contractually agreed. So not saying he'd put the screws to you but............ Spaw |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 22 Jan 13 - 06:44 AM Sir, you are certifiable. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Midchuck Date: 22 Jan 13 - 07:27 AM Sir, you are certifiable. You kicked all the people who are certifiable off this forum, you'd get two or three posts a week. And none from Maine at all. Peter. |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 22 Jan 13 - 09:08 AM Ohmmmmm... |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Jeri Date: 22 Jan 13 - 09:40 AM Kendall's resisting. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: John MacKenzie Date: 22 Jan 13 - 11:17 AM I thought you found him irresistable Jeri? Especially in THAT leather jacket ;) |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 22 Jan 13 - 11:39 AM "Sir, you are certifiable." Midchuck is merely jealous of Catspaw, because Spaw invented Amish-Australian Pitchfork Moustache Tuners and Midchuck didn't. Tell us about the tuner, Spaw. Does one use them to tune a moustache or does one use a moustache plus the tuner to tune a Gordon Bok guitar? whatever the case, it's nice to hear from you, Spaw. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: Midchuck Date: 22 Jan 13 - 11:50 AM I didn't say Spaw was certifiable. Kendall did. I merely quoted Kendall. On the other hand, I didn't say Spaw WASN'T certifiable. I merely have insufficient first-hand information. And I hope I never get it. P. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: maeve Date: 22 Jan 13 - 01:30 PM Stand down for a bit regarding the guitars; Gordon is still thinking about which ones he wants to offer. I'm sure someone will alert us when the right time arrives. Maeve |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Jan 13 - 02:45 PM Get rid of all of them I say. When you quit something you need to make a clean break. If he wants to unload the fans, I might know a guy who'll go 15 cents on the dollar. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: GUEST Date: 22 Jan 13 - 04:06 PM Gordon is going electric. Watch for the rock and roll version of Peter Kagan and the Wind at the 2013 Newport Folk Festival. Kendall Morse will be there with Pete Seeger's ax. |

Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: John MacKenzie Date: 22 Jan 13 - 04:33 PM Will he also have Trini Lopez's hammer? |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Jan 13 - 04:47 PM Nah.... Trini wore it out all over this land. Dumb fucker hammered all the time, 24/7 in every hill and dale. He hammered a warning that his hammer was about to fly apart............ Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: John MacKenzie Date: 22 Jan 13 - 05:29 PM But I thought the instruction was. Take this hammer, carry it to the Captain? |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: kendall Date: 22 Jan 13 - 07:14 PM If I had a hammer there wouldn't be any folk singers. |
|
Subject: RE: Gordon Bok guitars for sale From: John MacKenzie Date: 23 Jan 13 - 08:02 AM What's a folk singer? |
