Greg Jenner Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Hi, Well, this is odd... 12 years ago, I was one of the very first members of this messageboard - and was invited along to the video shoot for Feeling Good and HyperMusic, back in September 2001. I brought an electro-acoustic 12 string with me for the two days, to keep a few friends entertained on the long shoots, and the three guys from Muse graciously agreed to sign it. You can see a couple of photos attached that show a guy I met from the messageboard, (possibly Crazy Bob ), playing the guitar after only Matt has signed it, and meeting Matt and Dom. I've treasured the guitar ever since, but have been too scared to play it - fearing the tippex would come off. I'm now a 29 year old with a storage solution (don't grow old, kids...) and it seems such a waste that the guitar is just sat in its case, not being used. Since there was no interest on this message board, I have put the guitar on eBay. You can find the link here... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140767358098#ht_500wt_1158 The guitar itself is an Aria electro-acoustic 12 String, in near perfect condition, from 2000. It needs restringing and retuning, but is in great shape. Piccies attached. Many thanks, Greg Feel free to ask questions on Twitter at @Greg_Jenner
Greg Jenner Posted June 2, 2012 Author Posted June 2, 2012 That name sure does ring a bell... it's been so long. I was known as Garlicus _Maximus back then, and there was definitely a Crazy someone....
Greg Jenner Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 I can assure you, no-one was high. Though Matt and Dom were oddly interested in pot pourri at the time. I've now put the guitar on eBay if anyone's interested... Thanks Greg
james90 Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 it should show up now and i wouldn't mind that guitar (even if crazy bob didn't sign it)
You.Make.Me.Sick Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 I'm not questioning you at all, but i kind of chuckled when you said you were a 12 year member and it says you joined a few days ago. It's all good though!
Dominic. Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 I'm not questioning you at all, but i kind of chuckled when you said you were a 12 year member and it says you joined a few days ago. It's all good though! Â Haha, I didn't notice that! Â But yeah, I don't take that as any reason to doubt him though, maybe his old account was cleared out after not being active for a while or he just forgot the login details. Pictures are pretty conclusive enough that the auction's genuine
james90 Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 that's because this board only goes back to 2003. there was a different one before that.

Greg Jenner Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 Hey, yeah I'm THAT old... I went off to university and became far too busy, alas, and now my job swallows all my time. So the Messageboard had to vanish from my life. I only signed up here because I want the guitar to go to someone who'll love it. It's on eBay here. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140767358098#ht_500wt_1258 No-one's made a bid yet - so if you're interested, put in a bid and who knows?! Cheers Greg
