Just letting you know that I have placed the following on Ebay. I know things have been slow around these parts but if anyone wants to message me because one of the items that is listed is a personal desire of theirs then message me before the bidding get's going.
I also have a Brian Moore 21.13 and my Roland GR-33 listed there too plus a cute wee Fender standard MIM Telecaster.
UTE EBay Auction
Mandocello EBay auction
White 1758 12 string EBay auction
Thanks all

btw... you might want to check your listing template. Somehow you got about a half mile of whitespace in the middle. |

Oh and thanks to AlanM for noticing I had erroneously uploaded a pic of the 12 string in the Mandocello listing. |

Location: Lebanon, TN | Yeah I just got one out of college but he can't find meaningful employment in what he wants to do. Luckily a friend of mine has said he will take him on as a car sales guy from April, but certainly not what he has been looking for. The youngest still has anothr 15 months to go. |

I've been so frustrated with the cost of college it's unbelievable. I thought there would be all kind of financial aid available for middle class folks like us but the reality is this: If your kids don't have children of their own and if they come from a stable household (ie, the parents are still married), then there is no financial help...end of story.
But that aside, congrats for getting one through college and you have some wonderful guitars for sale. I certainly wish you the best of luck selling your guitars. |

It is like buying a new car every six months. I feel you pain. We just made our last tuition payment! 7 years of it. (2 kids) They did get academic and athletic money but it was still a lot of cash to lay out every fall and winter. Grad school is on them :-)
PS I guess we still have to save for weddings... |

Location: Lebanon, TN | You are right on the no help for the middle class married filing jointly. We also earn just enough that we don't even qualify for any deductions on the tuition or the loans. I now have the equivalent of two small mortgages in my name for each of them.
I have already told my daughter she has had her inheritance/wedding/house deposit :-) |
