Welp, I guess I'm not an acoustic player after all. I've tried everything up the scale - from Epiphone to Bourgeios - and I'm just not adapting well to acoustics.

So, with that, I'll offer my latest acquisition I researched, sought out and traded for. This is a well built, beautiful sounding guitar and I may regret selling it one day.

I have $975 into this guitar, and will sell it for that price. I'll cover PayPal (if you choose), but shipping is on you. Figure about $50 or so. I will not ship international.

I will consider trades for an amp, like a Marshall 1987x, or Suhr Badger 18 head... or a USA Fender Strat Reissue (57 or 62)...

You are 100% correct. Very nice guitar. The problem is most of the nice ones are taking a while to sell if they are selling at all. Just look at what has been offered lately on the for sale board, FD14s, TJ adamas,a 1680, a couple of beautiful 12s. They are all worth more than the asking price...might have something to do with this recession thing. Your only hope is if you are selling one that Jim wants... :)

Thanks for the notes. BTW - my user name on eBay is the same I use on all forums, including this one. Check my feedback to be assured a smooth and honest transaction.

Again, I researched quality and value of the CL Al Di Meola and made some trades to get this one. From what I've seen, it's worth more, but I'm passing its value to me onto someone else. I think it's a pretty good deal.

I'd be happy to keep it a while, cuz it really is a finely crafted instrument with electric guitar-like action.

But, I want other things and must move what I have to make room and generate capital.

I've been giving them away, not selling them. That's the only way to move them lately.

Well Trader Jim, man it REALLY makes me sad you are having to GIVE them away.
Tell you what, since I'm such a nice guy and all, I'll send you a $100 and whatever the cost of S/H to my house. That way I've got a pretty waitin' for me (other than my Wife) when I get some leave time in October, and you don't have to give one away. Sound good?
HA HA HA HA
Seriously, $100, it's money in your pocket!
Lakehaus, I really do hope you find a home for it.
It's a beautiful guitar, if I had the dough, I'd snap it up. I love my 12 CL.

Great guitar, Damon. I think you're going to love that little boost button for your soaring leads!
