Not sure what happened because my karma for good deals is non-existent, but I seemed to have found some major karma here. Was listed on eBay for $899 and ended without any bids. Came back up yesterday listed at $659. I put a bid on it and wrote the seller.

I’m going to be within 75 miles of his place this weekend. I asked what it would take to end the auction early and close the deal Saturday. He called late last night, about the 5th inning of the World Serious. We talked a bit.

Guitar sat in storage in small music store in western N. Carolina for 10 years. Friend of seller bought it had it for a couple of years, didn’t play it much, sold it to current owner who has several Adamas I’s he uses when he performs.

Anyway, we agreed on a price. Won’t be able to pick it up this weekend though because he is out of town at a show. It will be here next week.

Paid more than listed at auction end, but less than previous auction

1991 Adamas 1681-8
