I'll regret this but here it is. $800 plus shipping. (IMG_0732e.jpg) Attachments ---------------- IMG_0732e.jpg (64KB - 0 downloads) | ||

Looks very much like the '07C with a natural finish top and darker epi. I've been thinking of thinning the herd. This is by far the easiest playing O or A I've ever experienced. Soft V shaped neck, and something about the setup which makes it super easy to play. Op Pro preamp. Excellent condition. The case may have a scuff or two. It is on the bottom right of this picture. | ||

I just knew this would happen - I don't want to call these people and tell them their guitar came in. I want to keep it for myself! I just love the inlaid eppie. And it plays like a dream. Of course I'm going to have to call them but I might wait a couple of hours. THANKS STEVE!!! | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 4044 Location: Utah | Glad it arrived safely and is acceptable. Hopefully the new owner will love it and enjoy it as much as I did. This was the first O I ever bought for myself. Someday I'll regret letting this one go, it is definitely unique and it really is the easiest playing O or A I've ever experienced. Did you see the truss rod wrench? It kind of hides along the edge of the compartment, so I looped the hang-tag around it to make it more obvious. | ||

That is a wonderful tool and I hope you don't mind that I am keeping it for the shop. The folks buying the guitar are newbies and wouldn't know how to use it anyway. Besides, if it ever needs adjustment they know they can bring it here and I'll do it for free. | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 4044 Location: Utah | This guitar came with an extra long truss rod hex wrench. There's a grommet hole in storage compartment where the short end of the rod sticks in, with the long leg along the edge of the compartment door. It's the only O or A we've bought, including new ones, which came with this long tool. | ||
