I skimmed right over it in the daily ebay scan. Very cool copy.

Is that a 5-piece neck? Doesn't say anything about a truss rod...I wonder if this is a mass produced instrument?...Well, If i was going to spend $4grand I'd get New Hartford to make me an Adamas Longneck 12-string...

I had mine made for $350.00

If that guitar goes for 4 grand, I want mine back immediately.

I doubt about the neck on the guitar. In my day, most of the Philippine-made guitars that I tried and played never had truss rods in it (unless times have changed). Pretty much, when I get fret buzzes, the saddle and nut are replaced ... if necessary, higher gauge strings also ... otherwise, I'm SOL if I get the same results.

I won't be surprised if it's the same luthier who made Jeff's ... to whoever has it right now, go nab it quickly if some guy or gal pays the 4k price tag on that thing! :D :D :D (just kidding! hehehe...)

Well, if it worked the first time there was no need to do it again.

It looks nice, but I fear it is a crack waiting to happen. The case is included, but they should have included another case, of glue! ;)
