Location: Jet City | Well I got this a few months ago on the credit card hoping to find a way to afford it, but to no avail.
It's in perfect shape. The snot blob isn't even yellow. I bought it from guitar center with no case, but I have a case that I'll throw in.
$1900

Also. it should be noted that somebody defaced the label by scrawling their initials on it. Some C.W. Kaman II dude.

I like the blankee' too. Looks like one of those Marilyn Monroe shots. |

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | FLYSIG: I sold all my Garands to raise money for guitars. They just sound better than guns.
M1A1 (M-14) and a FN-FAL, both .308. ... I'd trade the both of 'em for THIS guitar. :D
But assault rifles don't seem to be very popular nowadays on or near campuses. Back to guitars ...
That's one sweet guitar there Damon! |

Location: Colorado | I'd sell my 1881 to get this one, but I wouldn't be able to make up the difference cash-wise since we just bought a brand new car.
I had to sell my 8-month old Celebrity Deluxe years ago to pay my tuition bill. I'm sure it wasn't nearly as heart-breaking as this is.
Best of luck to you Damon. |

Location: Bellevue, Washington | If I'm not mistaken the snot blob is the spray-on pickguard they put on the treble side to help keep scratches down. After awhile it ages into this gross yellowy-green "snot" color. |

Location: Upper Left USA | Yes, the "Snot Blob" is the thicker Poly area on the Adamas I that eventually soaks up something and discolors. This seems to take about 20 years and should not be a factor on later issues since it took a while to even show up.
Also note that an "SSB" does not indicate that it has a Super Snot Blob! |

That thing is SPRAYED on? Well! I learned something new today ... I like the way the snot blob compliments the colors, anyway ... yeah, yeah, I've changed the strings ... this was taken when I first got her ... she was a dirty little thing but in excellent condition ...

I think not! |
