Thanks for lookin' fellas!
BTW, the seller said she had it up for sale on the net for FOUR MONTHS! I beat out some place called "Vintage Guitars" who was wooing her for it, but they couldn't make up their minds, so ... SOMEONE had to take action (you know, to keep her in the 'family') ...
What was that you said about hurricanes, Iffy?

Granted, you're a spectacular photog, Willa, but that IS also a gorgeous guitar! And, your photography DOES go a LONG way toward doing her justice! Congrats!
Which one is that? (Meaning: eBay? CL? Private seller?)

Location: Right now? | Alan, I grabbed the guitar from CL, but she said she had it posted on several sites ... it was just one of those things that slipped through. She said that her band members were looking for the guitar yesterday ... when she told them she'd sold it, she said her guitar player had a FIT, telling her HE would have bought it!
She is a very nice woman and a successful musician who has had recording contracts with several companies in her 'day', and is presently working on a new CD. She's sending me a copies of her older albums AND her CDs, and she autographed my Ovation booklet ... good mojo indeed!

You are going to love that guitar so much you won't have time to play all the rest of 'em. If they get lonely, send some to your friends for fostering.
I just ordered some airlocks from Al yesterday. I'll be using them on the Elite 12. You should get some to try on this one. ;) |
