Nice offering Sam! and it would be so worth it.
I might have to move out 4 of my Adamas but with #57 would you ever play any others?
There is a reason Cliff never buys any extra guitars! |

Location: Upper Left USA | Well, I discussed this with my Wife and she helped me to find a simple solution... I'll be buying that Lotto Ticket today.
Any chance you need a 200 Chevy Silverado 1500 extended cab pickup with a V6 and a lumber rack? I'll throw in a kayak or two?
I'm surprised #57 hasn't gone down under yet! |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Woody, you discussed it with your wife?
Look, Explaining it afterwards is always tougher BUT you do end up with the guitar right? How is discussion in advance possibly going to lead to anything good?
Here's my motto: Any guitar that my wife would pre-approve of me buying is probably not a guitar I would want to own.
Buy now, 'splain later ... |

Cécile (my girlfriend) told me: "if you want it, just buy it.."!!
But I will be in my new house in 6 days and I have to pay my banker for the next 15 years.
Good luck with your sale Sam, you can't imagine how much I regret to not be able to buy it!!
Just not the good timing...

Seriously, I wish I could "freeze" my slothead sound right now, and then come back in 30 years and compare the OFC I to it. It doesn't sound as good as a real slothead now, but it's starting with a 30 year disadvantage. |
