Location: Omaha, NE		I'm gassing for a new guitar (an Eastman) and have to thin the herd a bit.

I've got 12-fret Koala #2. Its in great shape. No dents or nicks or anything. Only the slightest beginnings of some fret wear. Maybe just a tad of pick marks on the (beautiful koa) top.



Really not sure what it might be worth. Shoot me a PM or e-mail me at jeff thejeffmiller.com if you have any interest.

Georgeous from any angle.

Location: closely held secret		My LAVKoa is the one that gets grabbed at least twice as often as any of the other guitars. I think they might be getting jealous.

Go for it, Ronnie!

Location: Boise, Idaho		Beautiful guitars, although I haven't bonded with mine as well as the Wabbit has. I was just wondering if anyone wants to trade for one of the 09 Koa Collector's. I kind of like the Koa/Custom Legend look better than the soundhole in the upper bout. If that means I'm leaning in Moody's direction, maybe I should be worried.

Location: Omaha, NE		Well, after lots of consideration, I've decided to keep the Koala. Sorry for the balk, but its just too nice to let go. Now I need to talk myself into breaking my "limited number of guitars" rule!
