Thanks a million for the kind words from everyone that has PM'ed or emailed!! I've added a hard shell case to sweeten the deal.
THIS LITTLE JEWEL NEEDS TO FIND A NEW HOME,,,,I would love to keep every one I make,,,ESPECIALLY this one,,,but unfortunately I have to sell some,,,to feed my habit,,,(of making steel guitars,,,LOL)
I've had several interested,,,,someone needs to "pull the trigger" on this one of kind, very special little guitar. $450.00 includes shipping in CONUS and hard shell case!!

Hey Steve,,,Thanks for the kind words! Don't think about another purchase,,,YET,,,I told you,,,,I have in mind a real nice 8 or 10 string, fully figured maple,,,in red to match the Kline,,,LOL. I'm looking for just the right wood!
I think this little 8 string may have found a new home. If it stays here much longer I may not be able to let it go,,,very easy to get attached to. |
