| You guys are killing me.
OK:
Rationale 1: Although I already have an elite Koa, this one is a collector's.
Rationale 2: I TOLD my wife this was a better investment than the market..
Rationale 3: No vacation in way too long = more guitars (rejuvinating at typically less expensive).
Rationale 4: Because I said so.
Hmmmm, did I convince myself?

Where were you when I was trying to aquire one of these? Now that the cash cow has been slaughtered there's no more to be had. I'll probably spend the rest of the day looking around the house for something I can sell to raise money. Hmmmm ... How about a trade for a nice Vintage IH M1 Garand??? (: (: (: ??? You MAY need one down the road in Florida if the economy gets any worse. |

~~~===[ GORGEOUS ]===
~~~Though I must say I'm not 100% convinced the contour bowl is for me. Now a 2007 WITHOUT a contour bowl, hmm!
But someone has to buy this, it's a KILLER. It's eye candy now but imagine the tone of this baby in say 30 years. WOW! |

In fact I prefer the 03 to the Adamas! OK shoot me now! |

The only O in inventory at the local GC is a used 2006 KOA. They're asking $1400 or $1500. It has the rattiest and crappiest set of silk/steel strings on it, but it looks to be in otherwise excellent condition. If they'd only put a decent set of strings on it, they might actually sell it. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | You are. Those guys buy and sell guitars all the time. It's what they do. The Koa is a different sound and it's striking to look at. Some guitars with heavily figured tops don't sound good. This one will be good in both departments. |
