I've been a bit AWOL, recovering from an accident last August and catching up with some of my other hobbies plus finally purchasing some motorized transportation. I had made a New Year's resolution not to buy any more guitars or model aircraft (my other prime hobby) for at least the next 18 months...

I'm sure everyone knows how those "resolutions" go...

The Fleabay "Kleinanzeige", where I've found the majority of my axes, struck again a few days ago with this near mint 9214 12 string beauty from 1978 (if the ser. # follows the pattern - begins with 89.....), with case, and the asking price was so that no sane person should have turned it down. It took all of 15 minutes to convince myself...

I could pick the thing up myself now that I have a van (about 180 Kilometers round trip), but the shipping comes out less than what the trip would cost) and the seller is still on vacation till the end of the week.

I'll try to lift the photos from the listing.

Precisely my reaction! I was at my daughter's at the time, showing her a few things that I had on my "watch list" as the notification popped up that a few new ARIA listings were available. When I checked them out, I asked her if she had a baseball bat handy :toopidlol: if I succumbed to the 9214 listing (I nearly fell out of the chair when I saw the price asked :drool: ). She didn't and I succumbed :hyper: ...

I think you have to have at least 10 before its considered an "addiction". You're ok. . . :D


Feel free to post some pics of those. I'm really digging that black one with P90s. :love:

:D Well then the other brands I own don't count so that leaves at a minimum four more Aria's before the addiction label applies!

Yes, I think I need to upload higher quality pics to another location and reference them here. (The forum limit is 80kb). Get ready for some close ups!

That would be cool!

Sorry for the size limit. The site's disk space is finite. To upgrade the site's disk space would nearly double the cost of hosting.
