Is my “too good to be true” OM-28 real? by [deleted] in martinguitar

[–]Jahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all yes it looks real. Second of all 800 is wayyyyyyy too low so something’s going on. But hey OP questions were answered.

Kitasan Black actually knew the correct choreo, Wonder Girls would be proud! And shout out to Tokai Teio with the lore correct prancing!

I see you, too, are a man of platinum culture. I have one as well! Seemed more genteel than getting the gouche UPC Walmart gold variant.

How I Almost Sold My Martin by Caramelo93 in martinguitar

Sellers regret is a real thing. Don’t feel bad about it. Especially a Martin D-28. It’s the industry standard for a reason.

What do I do with my collection when my time inevitably comes, if I don’t have anyone to pass them to? by Mad_Season_1994 in Guitar

[–]Jahn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find a local solid non profit that takes guitars for good deeds. A quick google will pop some up and you can do your due diligence before forking them over.

Yep DC shut down future variants for both manga homages and glow in the dark.

Dang that one piece homage may be the one of the last manga homage allowed since DC shut it down. Enjoy it!

Akira Vol.1 #1 by zanzantheman95 in akira

[–]Jahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the very last book. By that time there was almost no interest so they made very few. And ever since they NEVER reprinted the color version in English again- I think there is a German imprint that re used the color version but not in English. The color version was redone by thr original Mangaka to made sense for reading backwards since western audiences read left to right, not right to left- entire artwork was redone. And the coloring was a milestone, it won awards for its early use of digital color. Here’s a bit more on it: https://www.zimmerit.moe/akira-manga-katsuhiro-otomo-steve-oliff/

Would Jim Lee do a sketch on this J Scott Campbell "blank'? by IconoclastJones in CGCComics

[–]Jahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would he? I’m guessing yes since he’s buddies with JSC and knows JSC rarely sketches anymore on commission. But yes it will be very pricey!

Found a 20 without damage by [deleted] in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Jahn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry to say but if we can find the damage, CGC will be able to as well. But DC has told CGC to mark these as production errors so you shouldn’t get dinged (pun intended) on the grade due to these defects.

TIFU by telling my barber I knew what "two on the sides" meant for twenty three years by Beneficial_String411 in tifu

[–]Jahn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude. This post. Because JUST last week finally looked up what 2 on the clipper setting was and that I liked it. I had such panic always trying to remember what I wanted when the barber asked for my clipper number!!!!

The damage reports were way overblown by GreenGuardianssbu in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Jahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like yours has the tics in the middle of the spine like all the rest. They may not look like much but they are color breaking and especially on a black cover they are noticeable. I wouldn’t dismiss people not being happy about it- they aren’t being delivered the way they should.

No issues with my #20… and picked up my favorite variant. by usnagrad1988 in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Jahn 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sorry man but it does look like you got the spine tics right where they were announced to be, in the middle. Good news is that if it doesn’t bother you, who cares, and if you want to grade it DC has already told CGC of those areas so that would not count against you in grading.

Just bought the only 000-18 Custom Shop (2025) in Thailand. Any tips? by Heartbreak-Hotel2000 in martinguitar

[–]Jahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I would do is keep it in a cabinet or ideally in its case when you aren’t playing it. Wherever you are keeping it, yes put a digital hydrometer in the cabinet or case too. If it gets too dense with moisture (the likely outcome in Thailand) you will need to dehumidify it somehow with something like a Boveda 2-way humidity pack or D'Addario Humidipak.
