Wasn't someone looking for a CB-Mill recently? There's one (not mine) on the bay and it looks to be very nice.

Thought I understood GAS until I saw this one.

That is one beautiful guitar, too bad my discretionary guitar buying fund has been depleted for a long time.

Think I'll run to the corner store and buy a lottery ticket.

The Planet inlay work is very well done, and this is the feature that makes this guitar stand out in a crowd.

It was not that long ago a price like this was unheard of for one of these. This will have to be one of the guitars that will be sought after by collectors in the future.
good investment.

The planet inlays would look cool on a bass

Good catch!

I just sent the seller a note. The pictures on Jerome's site show it to be owned by someone in the USA. Hopefully it will turn out to be the current owner of the guitar shown on Jerome's site.

SuePep has a Hamer bass with these inlays. It is gorgeous! (You too Sue :-)

Personally, I never saw the attraction of this model. The inlays are cool, but isn't it just an SMT Adamas? I never found them appealing.

Yes, SMT adamas.

I think the attraction is how rare they are and the cool inlays.

I happen to like the way it sounds, the neck, the bowl depth and the optima preamp as well.

No offense to those who have them, you all know my taste in guitars is somewhat eclectic. The Optima is a definite plus.

It's a nice guitar, no doubt about that.

Not to be overly peckish, but the Mill-CB is technically a CVT Adamas, not an SMT.

It's a gussied-up W597.

I stand corrected. Thanks. Now I don't dislike it as much.... ;)
