This is a one off guitar.

I bought this from Dave a couple of years ago and Paul Moody has been kindly minding it for me.
Due to personal circumstances I've not been able to get back to collect it as I intended and Paul can't keep it any longer.

Reluctantly I am offering it for sale.

Unfortunately I lost all my emails with the original pics and specs.
It is basically a gloss 2080 with Carbon Fibre case custom built for the 2007 NAMM show.

Asking $4200 plus shipping from SoCal.

Cuz you were afraid that you might scratch it?

(That is why I didn't buy the "Full Flamer" that Bobbo got...)

Naw, I think it's pretty tough to scratch. Although you wouldn't want to play it shirtless if you had a belly button ring.

But it WAS a darn MAGNET for fingerprints!

It's a killer guitar that has lived in it's case (it's not mine --- I'm not going to play it out) for the last several years. It needs a good home......

Jim, maybe someone else on the west coast can take over the babysitting duties until you CAN get over there to bring it home?

You don't want to deny your Aussie (Queensland) mates the opportunity to fondle and play that masterpiece!

If it's that important, maybe all of Jim's Aussie friends should chip in on the shipping and help him get these guitars home....

Thanks Guys

I have been offered alternative accomodation for the guitar very close to Paul.

The OFC family is a wonderful thing, thankyou Noah.

However having made the decision to put it on the market, the guitar is still for sale.
Offers considered.

You'll probably lose more in the selling than you'll pay for the shipping. I would want that bad boy in my own hands....

I'll chip in if I get to have a play - I'm indebted to you for all the help with my 12 string(s).
