Location: Yakima, WA | Today I received my Christmas present to myself –a 30th Anniversary Custom Legend 1719-30CM-4 courtesy of Stuart Miller and his “Grand Sale.” Many thanks to you Stuart -- my Adamas 1597 will never be lonely again.
In conjunction with this important event in my life, I am considering issuing the following proclamation:
1. I can have as many Ovation and Adamas guitars as I want.
2. Money is no object – the only thing that matters is my happiness.
3. I dearly love my wife, but she’s not the boss of me.
Thought I’d consult with OFC veterans before I pull the trigger on the proclamation. What do you think?

I take it you don't think a little "word-smithing" of my proclamation is going to cut it.

You should also invest in a comfortable couch. |

a beautiful U681-T
1658 Custom legend 12 string (beautiful partner to your new 1719)
Book Elite (bling-bling machine)
2006 Koa beauty
All still available for the right offer :-)(Bottom feeders need not apply) |

Location: Yakima, WA | Stuart, you have me tempted!! The proclamation may give me just enough courage to act.
Check your e-mail for info on wrap-up of the 1719 deal.
Thanks, Dave |

Location: South of most, North of few | As a previous purchaser (quite a few!) from Stuart, I can assure you, whatever you buy from him will be in better condition than what he says it is. Also, as previous owner of the UTE in question, I can tell you it is a fantastic guitar. :D |

If your wife loves you get her to buy you the UTE as her Christmas present for you.
Merry Christmas

If somebody has info on a future gathering of Pacific Northwest members, I'd appreciate it.

Location: Campbell River, British Columbia | There will be a gathering of at least two PN-OFCs in July at the Vancouver Island Music festival in July. I'd post the link here but the site has been down for a couple weeks. Hippies... :rolleyes:
Still, it's one of the best little music festival weekends I've seen and heard. |
