Kev Chanot Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think the description of its condition is blown out of all proportion !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actonern Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 LOL... how does something become so comprehensively unglued? Immersion? If so, wouldn't the varnish show it too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallie Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Someone must've taken it apart for one reason or another. I doubt this can be from the normal shoulder wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGV Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I should be PAID $800 to get this fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwight Brown Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 It might be cool to do an exploded view and then sell it for $$$$$$$! http://theevolutionstore.com/store/beauchene-skull/ DLB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Chanot Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Dwight,didn't a French artist named "Arman" make violin themed sculptures,some featuring "exploded" views? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violadamore Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 "Believe it or not", humidity can do this. I note what looks like mold all over the case exterior. Probably came from somewhere right on the coast. Nice kit, though it looks to be a 3/4. If they had it for a rational price, like $50, I'd have made it disappear by now . Anybody heard of Wallace Buckman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_Molnar Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 It needs just a little attention from VdA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfiddle Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Are the corner blocks huge or is it just the perspective? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
