No, I didn't need to. If he decided to go through with the sale, I'd have bought it for $6500. I spoke to him yesterday and he said he was having 6 players over last night. The message he left today was that they all agreed that the guitar was special and he should sell his other guitars.
Still doesn't solve his original problem which is his wife will neither get a good price nor find a good home for it, thus disrespecting her husband and causing him unnecessary stress and grief as he lives out the rest of his retirement. You can solve both problems for him and be a friend who allows him to come over and jam from time to time. Invite him over for coffee and keep the relationship going.
It will take more than that for him to leave it to chet in his will. Maybe first dibs if chet even thought of asking.
It's just another piece of junk to clutter up the house. He's better off with the money.
Next time, send the offer via MFL.com and have him accept there...and hope your league doesn't veto it.
