I'm sorry for any misunderstanding concerning shipping. The included shipping is for the lower 48 states only. Anywhere else shipping is extra. I accept PayPal or U.S. Postal Money Order. I can't accept Cashier's Checks anymore because of the various online scams concerning them. Please email me if you have any questions.
Thanks;
Joe

Wasn't me. I am out of touch with the world until the first of the week. I guess jyam4 sold it to AFG before I could get to it. I still have my bid on e-bay.

I was buying it, but then the shipping price came in at almost what the guitar cost! UPS wants over $200. to get it to Alaska and jyam4 didn't want to go USPS. The shipping costs made it out of line.

ttenn-Get back ahold of Joe. Actualy I thought I was #2 in line for this guitar and you were #1 and opted out. This looks like a really nice guitar.

Well, times change. I am considering the Adamas that Lenny or StandingO have for sale. If I can't swing the costs on those, I may get this Balladeer. Have to see what the finances can do.

Yeah, I have a Celeb CK057, Custom Elite C778LX and I was looking for a Balladeer or Legend to fill out the stable. However, after getting together with Paul, Noel, and George last week and getting to play George's Adamas, I started feeling homesick for the Adamas.

I sold the W597 that I got from Al because the color didn't sing to me. The guitar did. Lenny or StandingO's Adamas would fit the bill. I may come back to a Balladeer/Legend if this doesn't work.
