Matter of fact, I will sell off every electric I have before the Warriors leave the stable.
IMHO, they have recently gone overboard with their religious themes and now (I believe) all of their current production is religious based. Obviously their prerogative but most likely reduces their prior market. |

I had to look at it twice - the white guitar body didn't do much for me, until I looked the whole package over a couple times. 'Course, for that kind of money you could buy a LOT of guitar a lot of places. |

Vic No! I woulda bought that old Adamas that went for $725 today, and still had $10K left. :rolleyes: |

That was a good deal I thought.
And you could have bought this with the change.

And I thought for sure that Adamas would go higher!
How Did You Miss It?...
The seller was too cheap to pay the 35 cents for a Gallery listing.
Just a blank snap-shot icon... |

Hmmmmmm; does anyone know if the Mothership would do fancy inlays...........??

And Andrew, you better quit looking at that stuff if you're going to be able to afford the Larry. ;) |

With a wife and two daughters I did a lot of camping like that. |

| what's wrong with a little religious imagery in marketing guitars... Preachers, Deacons, and Breadwinners here..
nice inlay work on gabriel, but I'd have to put on a halo, wings and white gown to be comfortable playing it.. while trying not to be "smitten" for the charade so I guess I wouldn't be very comfortable...
my wife would probably like it tho.
but for 11k?
nahh..

For 11k it's not even close, but it's a cool idea nonetheless. |

Collings makes outstanding acoustic guitars and recently got into the electric market.
Warrior makes fantastic electric guitars and just recently decided to get into the acoustic market.
Both are small companies so maybe the owners got bored with their specialties and decided to explore new avenues.
Workmanship from both companies are extraordinary but the aesthetics might leave a bit to be desired. |
