The bankruptcy judge's order, meanwhile, contains the following only-in-Durham item:
3. The Debtor [Nifong] owns, and has claimed as exempt, a Paul Reid Smith guitar, a Fender Deluxe guitar, and a Martin guitar (“the Guitars”).
4. According to two independent appraisals of the Guitars, the higher value of the Guitars is $3,389.00. The Trustee is of the opinion that the value of the Guitars is approximately $3,500.00.
5. The Debtor has agreed to pay the Trustee the full appraised value of the Guitars, $3,389.00, in consideration for the interest of the estate, and a sale of the estate’s interest in the Guitars to the Debtor is more economically feasible than an attempt to market and sell the Guitars to a third party.
So, the Fongster has to buy back his own guitars. How sweet!

ReplyDeleteThe judge may wish to exercise caution with respect to those guitars as they may be 'owned' soon by the Duke University Men's lacrosse team and then donated to the Sex Workers Art Show as a statement of 'nuanced commentary' about politically correct sensationalism.

Did he pawn them to protect them? I don't think losing one's guitar is the most important problem.

Such a fun post to come back to........after having been without the Diva computer for two whole days while it was getting a yearly tune-up.
Mikey really needs to hold on to his guitars. How else can he successfully embark upon a new career on the road?

ReplyDeleteWho wrote the song you are playing off?
George Harrison?
Bob Vasile might lend Mikey one of his mandolins.
ReplyDeleteActually, they are very nice guitars and likely undervalued...
ReplyDeleteThey will probably show up on ebay for 10k each.
ReplyDeleteDoes Mikey have a buskers license?
ReplyDeleteI bid $3600
ReplyDeleteI can be reached at tsi53@aol.com
