Location: South of most, North of few | OK next is the pride of the fleet. Tacoma EKK19C. Cutaway all Koa with beautiful grain, added koa truss rod cover and Temp Koa tuner buttons courtesy of Kotadawg. Comes with humicase molded hard case. Beautiful shape, no fret wear, LR Baggs factory installed electronics. 1200.00 + shipping. The only issues are a couple of very small milky spots along the binding which I'm told is par for these guitars. Sounds heavenly and plays like butter with 1 3/4 nut. Let me know...

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast | OFC ladies and gents,
The first time Jim came to the house, this was one of his 'adoptees' that he brought. Of the gits he brought, it was the hardest one to put down. The top is stunning and the tone reminded me of the '97C (Jim, correct me if I'm off base).
He actually headed to the door to leave and I had to remind him he forgot his Tocoma. "Just hold on to it. We can settle later". I had to carry it out to his car... I was on the hunt for a Preacher or Deacon at the time.
I may sound like TJ's PR guy, but anyone that has played or bought any of his gits knows that he's a class act with class gits.
And this one is sooooo fine!
<Jim, I'll waiver my commission on this one>  |

Location: South of most, North of few | This is one guitar that I, and others (Jack knows what I'm talking about) consider "too pretty" to play. I've been playing it regularly now, and it really sounds as good as it looks. I really don't know why I'm selling it, but if it doesn't go, I'll consider it fate. I've always got another hanger on the wall for a great guitar.
BTW Jack, I did give you credit in the first post for the Koa tuner buttons. Great addition from Paul T! :D |

AJ The truck isn't getting to me, it's not having the money to get it on the road. So close. Just need to save for a couple more months. |
