Location: South of most, North of few | Selling to fund another purchase, (another one I swore I'd never sell) this CA is in pristine condition. Beautiful sound from this all carbon fiber guitar. Even the fret board and bridge are a composite material. Stainless frets, no truss rod, and it never comes out of tune. Anyone who has played one will attest to the great sound put out by this instrument. Unaffected by humidity or temperature, they make a great gigging guitar. Factory installed electronics, which I believe are B Band, with volume and tone controls in the sound hole. No fret wear or issues anywhere. Comes with (up graded from gig bag) hard shell case from CA. The pictures are from the original owner since he captured it much better than I can, but the guitar is in the same condition now. $1200.00 + any shipping or paypal fees. If you want anymore pics, let me know.

This is so we can start saving up now to buy it. :D
Unfortunately my guitar fund is depleted until the year 2014. |

BTW Stephen, don't tempt me, I'm on a mission. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Here's a couple more I took after work. Excuse the dust and bugs as they all seem to find a black guitar. Too much sun makes the back look purple to my cheap camera.

| So what model Jim? Gettin' one built, or got your eye one one already? I hear the Austin folks are backed up a few months on orders.
BTW, I played this particular CA recently, and it is a SWEET guitar. Superior tone, and very easy neck. Plus, you really could use it for a canoe paddle with no problems. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Prof, It is their Grand Auditorium model, kind of an OM size, which is listed as 4 7/8" depth, but it feels much slimmer. Very comfortable, as it has a lot of contours on the back that make it easy to hold. (Yeah, I know, it doesn't slip off your lap) ;) |
