Woody bet me that much saying you would be the first to bid and then T28.
I went with T28 bidding first and then you.
Well Woody, you win this one.
Should I send cash or will you take that 1537 I screwed up when I tried sanding the gloss off the neck? :confused: |

Location: Upper Left USA | Besides the fact that this one is Lovely, I am thinking that there are at least 5 OFC'ers that have expressed an interest in this Vintage Collectible and Rare Ebay offering.
Sarcasm aside, they don't grow on trees and I finally have a model (ish) that is showing some appreciation for a change.
Like I said, the winner is the one that bids the highest and this looks to be a worthy prize.
Beware! Once you feel the Deacon body with 12 strings you will be changed for life! |

Noah, if I get it for my high bid, it is yours! |

Location: NJ | Design workstation for home (and hopefully to just do some rudimentary recording). Jeanette's machine at home is all the way up on the 2nd floor "office" and is a bit too . . . basic.
This one'll go down in my MusicRoom/dungeon and is a bit bigger/faster, etc. . . |

Location: closely held secret | Good. I usually build my own machines (less expensive, choose my own components), but I realize not everyone's into that. We use Dells pretty much exclusively at work, and they've proven to be pretty reliable. I've heard good things about that model. |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | When you have bought as many guitars as I have, you learn to draw a line in the sand before you bid, and stick to it. It just went over what I am willing to pay. If it was in mint condition, I may have felt differently. |

Deacon 12 for grabs.
