[HAM] Auger chop

[joe d]

Even with bad phone-cam audio Auger's playing is still comin' thru. Nice!

But really, how much would a chop like that run somebody?
I mean,isn't there a ceiling one would hit before they stood back and said, 
"hey wait a minute, for lower than the ticket price I could fix/restore this 
thing and get a new set of roll or kari's/etc".
