Is that guitar on the RIGHT...........

actually LARGER than the one on the left?

Or, is it just an optical illusion?

Aloha, Ray -

Hope you are doing well, my friend!

I see what you mean...I think it's an illusion. The guitar on the left is slightly up and over...in the 'Northwest' direction...kind of like Oregon and Florida..

So if you want to escape the cold rainy winter this year, drive southeast! Cool

Shipping (USA) will now be paid for by the seller. The asking prices are negotiable to reasonable offers.

This is a chance to get a great bakelite. These don't come around often in this condition!

Hey Jeff.........
Such a deal for these two beautiful guitars.

I'm truly surprised that no one has grabbed them up by now. The price is fabulous; about 1/2 of what similar models on eBay have been going for this past couple of months.

Are these Rick's previously owned guitars? If they are, I know how meticulous he was with his instruments and how well they've been cared for.

Hopefully they will be snatched up before I check back as to their anticipated progress. You did say that the seller will cover 'shipping' too?

Ray, remember what you said last month... you have all the steel guitars you'll ever need, and you won't be buying any more... Winking Laughing I wish I had a dollar for every time I said that.

DOUG, I tho't for sure you were my friend.........(?)

and quite possibly, that you'd be in bed by now.

You're beginning to sound like 'a wife' by constantly reminding me about the guitars and what I said when and all.

However, you were recently very nice to me and have opened a new page in my music for me, so I'll overlook your wifey tendancies.

Hi Ray -

Yes, these were Rick's guitars. He kept everything in top shape. His wife has agreed to pay the shipping. A sweet deal on some really sweet steels!

By the way Ray, they'd look great next to your other babies. All you need are two more hooks, and they are on the wall! Wink
