I visited the seller this last Friday and conversed for about an hour. He is retired and has a room full of VERY nice axes - mostly acoustics from nearly all the major builders and is simply weeding out. Selling this one simply because he doesn't have an Amp and that it's so nice that he's afraid to take it out of the house!
The guitar is immaculate! I couldn't even see any scratches other than on the pick-guard. There was a minor bit of fretwear and the Git is kept in its case. Sound is REALLY nice but I was not able to test the amped sound - my son was not able to bring his micro stack. We got to the point of what he was considering a "reasonable asking price" and I nearly choked
(altho I WAS expecting it)! 900 Euros! I was able to partially recover
and he asked what I was able prepared to shell out which was half of his price. We agreed on a price that was reasonable to both of us and I mentioned that I was going to a flea-market on the weekend where I hoped to sell some of my model aircraft and kits (yeah, TWO rather expensive hobbies!) and possibly be able to raise some more cash, but the market didn't pan out,,,
. No others have inquired about the guitar as yet, so he said that he' keep me in mind.
A nice thing is that he lives only 500 meters from me!
