Location: Yucaipa, California | Ok, so now it’s official!
My 2001 Collector’s Redwood #293 is on the block.
Here are a few pictures:
My first choice for this deal is this: Trade the Redwood STRAIGHT ACROSS for a good mid-level Archtop Jazz guitar (Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor or Emperor Regent for example) and a good mid-level Classical Guitar, both with hardshell cases.
I would love to work up a deal with no monies exchanging hands (except respective shipping costs).
My Second choice is this: Trade the Redwood STRAIGHT ACROSS for a good mid-level Archtop Jazz guitar (Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor or Emperor Regent for example) and extra $$$ to make up the difference.
My Third choice is this: Sell the Redwood OUTRIGHT for $900.00 (including OHSC) leaving me with enough to purchase an Archtop and Classical separately.
So, whatcha think? Is it doable?
Thanks, |

Maybe toss in one of those "Jiffy Pop" hats and someone's bound to take you up on it! I think you'll find something. |

Location: Colorado | Wow Tim. You're breaking my heart that I don't have the extra funds to take this thing off your hands. Hopefully someone on the board here will accomodate you and keep it in the family.
Best of luck with the sale/trade. |

Has it already been a year since you went on the cruise to celebrate the big 50? |

O.K., I was off by 5 degrees...but the wind will be howlin from what I hear...burrrrrr.
Shipping a guitar in this kind of weather is not a good idea...believe me, I learned the hard way...twice!

I'd rather let it ride here for those who really appreciate it... whenever....there's no rush, but the folks hereabout are the only ones who truly understand guitars like this one.... I can wait for the right "good home" that it deserves..... |

Of course 84.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot and you can only count on me 50% of the time. |
