Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Here is my Adamas 1688-5 up for sale...I have two 1688's and sadly, one must go...those at Amelia know what a great guitar this is...I'm hoping that someone in the OFC will buy it but I need to move it asap...If someone here gets it I'll leave the walnut mini buttons on at no extra charge...that's a $120 freebe...
1688-5
Here is a video of how great it sounds:

Location: SoCal | This is a great guitar Mikey's selling. Even tho' it's not posted, I'll bet the asking price is reasonable as well.
If you love playing a 12 string, you should own one of these..... |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Sorry; the link to the auction is there but: opening bid is $2100 and BIN is $2399...
I have decided that I can only play a few guitars at one time (lol, right) SO I'm going to sell a few: some are keepers and will not be for sale...all are really nice guitars....so, I'll share the wealth by offering them to the group...and also to the public at large... |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | Have Faith... I have sold a coupla geetars to zero and really low numbered buyers.
My attitude about that is... Zero feedback eBayer's PayPal is just as good as anybody's.
Hope you can get it a good seat on SwissAir.

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Fortunatly: I haven't shipped it yet...
(Maybe some things are just meant to be...)
Worst part is freakin paypal will not tell me what the problem is....only that it is not me...
So it may be making the trip to NC...lol
Stay tuned... |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Talked with the buyer today: very nice lady in Switzerland: her sister is the one actually getting the guitar...first time eBayer/PayPal user...PayPal sent up a red flag since it is a large amount...PayPal is resolving this as I type...I already have the funds...just waiting to ship..
So, more nightmares from the security paranoid environment we now try to do business in...on the one hand I’m glad PayPal is looking out for me (right) but on the other hand the stress is a bit much...and the nearly 24 hours it took to speak with someone at PayPal who could actually help me just adds to the heartburn...
BUT, guitar is Swiss bound: hoping to follow for a visit soon...lol |
