Ya came to the right place if there are any to be found. The main problem is that these books are difficult to find. And, those that have 'em usually hold onto 'em.
Good luck in your quest. |

The Book- European Tour (TBET 2009) seems to be MIA. It (supposedly) left Madrid, after Thanksgiving, bound for Michael Winters, in The Sandbox, but routed through APO New York. May have gotten hung up in a security area (probably some gitplayers around there!), before inspection & forwarding.
Haven't heard from SubPop whether the parcel was sent, or not. |

It was right beside the Asian $379 and $399+ Celebritys and a beat up $899 Yairi. I checked out the USA label inside. I couldn't believe the condition or price. The guitar center guy seemed oblivious to any differences. I actually hadn't planned on buying a guitar. I was actually looking for something for my brother in law to play to replace his 89 Colectors model he's sending back to the factory for repair. He wasn't interested. So this Christmas Eve I'm the proud owner of my first Ovatian a 1991 Elite 1868 and yes I'm planning on playing this baby and I'm very thankful.
Best-Darrell |
