2006 Excel 12 string ext. E9, Alumitone pickup, made for Joe Wright hence the big W on the front. Top of the line guitar with the cabinet drop compensator that these guitars are famous for. 9 pedals and 5 knees,
I am only using 5 pedals at the moment, but have all the parts for a universal setup. Amazing sustain from
the 25.1/2" scale and plays like butter. I will include the original factory pickup if you want it. $2,200. Buyer pays shipping.

Mechanical Genius!!!!
A true marriage of precision and beauty.
I bet this sweet ride sustains for days with the 25.5 inch scale.
The price is ridiculously low!
Salivary glands in overload.......................

Bought a Kline from Howard and it was in great condition. It's my main gigging guitar here in Beijing. He's also a real gentleman with whom to do business who went out of his way to help me. stevet |

Thanks for the kind words, Steve and yes,Curt, this guitar has phenomenal sustain from it's long scale, It is very light in the case as well- 42 lbs. Nice for all those of us with old backs... |

I've been getting a lot of questions about the W on the front of this guitar, so I thought I would post a response. The W is inlaid into the front mica in the same mica that is on the top, so,no it can't be removed. You could remica the front, but when people ask me about it I say my nickname is "Waylon" and it always brings a laugh.
I am adding a picture of the spare parts that I have from when it was a Universal. I have gotten a lot of questions about them as well.

I don't have the money for now but if I can find a quick sale for any of my Sho-Bud Crossover, Fender 400 or Fender 1000 you will be hearing from me. Hope it is not too late. |

Jerry, the guitar is still for sale at the moment. What looks like a knob on the left of the guitar is the storage spot for the tuning allen wrench which has a handle on it. You pull it out of an aluminum plate in the deck of the guitar. |

A commitment to buy the guitar has been made. If the funds arrive and clear, she's found a new home. Thanks
everyone for the interest. |
