Sold one of my Syn models! 😨😢😁🤘🏽

I just had to share this. I had 3 Syn models and it came time for me to part with one of them.
After having it listen for over 2 years, I sold it yesterday!
I finally found the perfect buyer! It was a young girl (12-15?) that LOVES A7X. And LOVES Syn. And is a student here!
After seeing her good the guitar, and the excitement it brought her, I feel like I’ve done the best thing for my beloved instrument. I hope it inspires her as much as it did me and I’m so happy to see it go to another person who loves A7X and playing guitar as much as I do. She’s hoping to go to her first A7X show in August! I’ve been on top of the world ever since she got it so I just had to share!

It’s always sad saying goodbye

It is, but I’m so glad that it went to someone who will love it a cherish it like I did! I’ve turned down many offers from people whom I thought would just resell it.

Which model did you have (color and such)?
Also great story!

 

[Tory Capman]

Thanks!
It was a Syn custom black w/ silver pinstripes. I also have black w/red and a custom-s white w/black stripes.
The one I have with red stripes is in drop-c tubing and the white one is the one I use most often. So this one didn’t get much attention anymore, it’ll be much happier in her hands!

I used to have the Syn Gates Joker Custom but I sold it when I was in serious need of money.
Now I can’t find one…

Looking at the specs on the new ones here in the store, it looks like Syn has significantly refined these for the new model year. ~18k resistance on the new pickups sounds batshit crazy; I’m looking forward to hearing how they sound!
