I'm looking for pictures, old ads, amps, kats, guitars and or whatever.
I've got a few amps and some old stock certificates from my in laws. If anybody has anything they're ready to let go of for a fair price please let me know. I'm in southern California.

Welcome to the world of everyone here and to the forum! We all want the rarest things that are the hardest to find We all search everyday for them. Sometimes you will find items for sale here.

i never said i was looking for the rarest things. if you have an old ad and i can put in a frame then i'd probably be interested. my inlaws gave me there certificates for stocks they owned when they worked at the factory (that are probably not worth anything) however i think they're great and would be proud to have more. I know they made a lot of stuff with the scraps and that's all stuff i would definitely like to have.
so to clarify if you have anything kustom even from the kustom electrics era and you would like to sell it.... i would like to add stuff to my collection and am at a point where i can financially afford to get a couple new things

Obviously you do want some of the rare things because you did list them, also you must not have seen the smiley face in my post. If you are going to be involved here you are going to have to grow a thicker skin than that if you are going to come on here and call me a douche, really, you don't even know me. Why don't you search for your own finds like the rest of us do! Guitars are an easy find just look on e-bay they go for over a grand. If you can find a real nauga Kat you may have to pay close to the same.

When the guy from china was buying them all up and making re-pops of them, they were going for that, now you just don't find real ones on the net very often. When is is last time you saw one Steve? I haven't seen a real on in a very long time! I see a lot of fakes for a lot of money. I don't think you are going to find one unless it is an estate or garage sale find. All of the Kollectors know what they have and what they are worth. Too bad Donnie burned up hundreds of them in that damn burn barrel.....lol!

A few years back, a guy from China was buying up every Nauga Kat that came up on E-bay and would pay up to or over a grand for them. He started making re-pops of them and trying to sell them. However, they were easy to spot as they weren't correct.
Our friend used to sell Kustoms at a music store that he worked at and they would get boxes of Nauga Kats and they couldn't give them away and they started to pile up and his boss told him to burn them in the burn barrel! Now he just shakes his head as do we, kind of one of those things, if you only knew what the future would bring!
