Sounds like he really hates the guitar and is trying to have some fun getting rid of it!!!!!

The regular W597 I have played a couple of times at Elderly Instruments, and it is a nice piece. Can't imagine the ME model is significantly different. The pearl finish on the ME 6-string does NOT work for me....I have no desire for one. I CAN tell you there is no sound difference between the regular CVT 12-string and the ME model, I have played both, and own the ME. Back to the Aria....well, OF COURSE Music123 will think highly of it!!! They're trying to sell it for street retail!!! :) Roger 1976 Applause AA14-4 6-String 2001 Adamas 1598-MERB Melissa Etheridge 12-String 2003 Celebrity CC01 Spruce Top 6-String NOW HERE - 1981 1118-1 Glen Campbell 12-string | ||

A couple of eBay newbies took a fancy to it and had a bit of a mini "death-duel" over it, that is why it got that high. Just think, with shipping, it will cost almost $50!!!!
