Thanks for all the great comments guys - they've made me much more confident that I'm buying a guitar that I won't want to turn around and resell. The guitar is supposed to be shipped out today - I will definitely post a picture or two when I get it along with my thoughts on it! | ||

Joined: October 2009 Posts: 78 Location: Keene, NH | Ahh yes - no I wanted that one. However, it's my understanding someone else offered him more than I was willing to pay. So now I'm going to try this one :) I would love to have an Adamas though...love the look. But we'll see how this CL feels. | ||

If he can't ship, maybe you can pick it up and babysit it for a while? Would that take some of the sting out of it? Originally posted by Patch: CRAP!!!!!! 1537?!?!?!?

I thought it would be a LOONNGGG time before I had another chance at one of these. Like most of the OFC, I usually hear about these great deals right when I don't have the cash to do anything about it. | ||

Joined: October 2007 Posts: 2711 Location: Vernon CT | Patch, My post was half "Tongue in Cheek" as they say. Yeah, I would love to have one someday,but, unfortunately, I've been selling. Had 10 a year + ago, just sold 1 this weekend and may sell another tommorrow which will leave me 3 O's and one very special electric my son plays. If you need help getting it I'd be happy to help you. Let me know. :) | ||

Someone else have at it. It's worth every penny and then some.Originally posted by BT717: That's a 1537. For $500...... Chris, is that the one in Ct or Mass?
