Happy Friday fellas! While doing a little surfing last night, I found a rather interesing site id like to share with you gentleman. It seems as though someone has found Robert Johnsons Gibson L1 guitar. You know, the one hes holding in the picture. ( only 2 pics of Johnson exist. ) For a small sum of 6 million dollars this baby could be yours! I figure if we here at GN2 pool our funds we could buy it, pass it around one by one to the members and ALL get a chance to play the Holy Grail! ;D Ill start the poll at $10 CDN. Heres the site....Check it out. ..................... ( EDIT: link removed, due to it being redirected to an XXX site. Sorry, deep. )

oh sweet grail. why is it not in a museum? oddly enough, this is not the picture of Johnson that i am familiar with. i prefer the one w/ the smoke hanging out of his mouth... at any rate, i would be willing to chip in some cash if we can get enough people to hope on this thing. it makes me consider selling my soul on some crossroads for it.....

Either that, or it was all a hoax in the first place. sumgai

Let me assure you, when deepblue first posted that link, it did NOT go to porn. He's a right guy, and would NEVER do something like that. Evidently the site name was abandoned, or the owner of the name was just playing a prank. DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK IN THE FIRST POST OF THIS THREAD!
It is porn. I have sent PMs to the staff and deepblue. One of them will fix this problem soon.Sorry for the inconvenience. Unk EDIT: Fixed by Sumgai. see below

tb, I have removed the link, and edited as posted above. Sorry you had to be "the guinea pig" on that one. sumgai (EDIT: Hah! I see that Unk posted his warning, even as I was editing the original link that went bad. Great channels run in the same mind, and all that. ;D)

Just hopping back to deep's original point, a search on your fave SE for 'Robert Johnsons Gibson L1 guitar' will bring up the news item in question without the pron (if you prefer it that way, LOL).

Geez!
Yes guys....For the record, the link as originally posted took you to RJ guitar. I would not direct you fellas to pornography.
Thanks Unk and all you others for backing me up!
I dont know how these guys take over a link or whatever it is that they do, its a real pain.

I dont know how these guys take over a link or whatever it is that they do, its a real pain. Of course you wouldn't. These guys are sneaky. They got a hold of the domain name. Or perhaps they always owned the name, used it for innocent purposes for a while, then pulled a switch. Of the many millions of names in use out there, I'm sure more than a few have been tools for these kind of e-evildoers. Still the percentage of seeing this happen is small. You should consider yourself (un)lucky to have this happen to a link you posted.
