phantastik Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) heres a shot of the stem and the base, bought this used, and well. it was in no shape to smoke. Havn't used it yet but i put enough work into cleaning it so it should be as good as new.The stem is a lebanese type, not an egyptian. speaking of which, on the MYA website, i'm guessing that'd be the best to purchase the converter right? any idea on how it works? (Seeing how the top does not screw off.)The base, a bohe glass vase, pretty nice look actually. I'm not complaining about the color.A shot beside the 36" KM ice, just to give you guys a feeling of it's size. This is smaller then the glass bohe MYA that is on the offical retailer's website. (well, judging by the stem.)And don't say this is not a mya, because every piece on here has the trademark MYA imprinted everywhere. followed by "made in china" almost adjacent of the imprint.Any help guys? :[ Edited January 10, 2009 by phantastik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bye bye now have fun Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 looks like http://www.myasaray.com/store/item.asp?ITE...EPARTMENT_ID=49 with a new base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantastik Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 I thought so, maybe i've got an older model. The little column thing on mine is much shorter then the one on the MYA website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 i love it!where did you pick it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Mya has a baJILLION different stems, don't listen to anyone who says it's not one lol, I don't think anyone many vendors included can keep track of em all especially since we don't get everything that's manufactured here in the US.Why I seem to recall just a few months ago EVERYONE saying "KM doesn't make rotators!" when low and behold they do - we just don't get them here That being said - beautiful pipe! And crap if I can remember but I know the bowls you need are sold online maybe at HC?And I can paraphrase our beloved and practically worshipped Eric of Tangiers saying that he wishes the egyptian style wouldn't have become the popular bowl style as he prefers the male style you have.I love the combo of the boho vase and the modern stem, niiice find and of course we need more details price, etc etc...

phantastik Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Ahh i see, okie dokie :]glad you guys enjoy it! i picked it up locally via craigslist for $50, mighty beat up but i did my best at the moment to fix it up, although on the outside of the vase, there are lime and calcium spots, so that'll be my next fix up.The previous owner says he picked it up somewhere in Berkley, but thats all he could remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victim026 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Yeah it's a Mya short column stem, they do come in a variety of sizes though. I'm betting that the lebanese adapter on the top does come off but maybe that it's sealed on there with lime/calcium deposits. I've got that issue with a downstem on an Ager Syrian I'm putting up for sale in a few minutes, although I'm sure a little CLR would clean it off and get it to come unstuck, but it might take some work.

phantastik Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 okay your right, i drank a redbull, for i know without one, i am far too weak for this task (HAH.) then tried to unscrew it and it came off, need to order the egyptian adapter before i head to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victim026 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'm not gonna say what vendor told me, but in the next KM shipment supposedly there will be 1,2,3, and 4 hose KM's. Don't take it for granted, just what I heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
