If your taking it with you, check Cliff for Cashews before letting him play it!

You boy's have fun. I have a feeling the neighbors aren't going to be ready for this bunch Bill. They're going to run down the batteries on your cart, track sand through the house, and drink all your booze!

Just couldn't risk it going to the 'Bay and leaving the OFC family....Of course, I think I promised away the Moon to SWMBO and no more G.A.S. until the 2nd Mortgage is paid off.

All right Tim! Great score on an outstanding guitar. You know s28, if he says mint, it's better than new. Looking forward to seeing/playing it at SSJII.

Hah....glad you got it.

That box is actually what one of my Collings came to me in during the Colorado winter.....hence the warning on the outside of the box.

Being an Adamas (and springtime temps), I think you are safe to open it....but you have been warned! ;)
