Nice grab Crimson!
I was stalking that one too, but until I sell one or two, I've got no ammo to appease my itchy trigger finger!
Oh well, I'm workin' on something else anyway.
Congrats! Thanks Patch - I'm working on the more dangerous - buy one, then try and sell one - theory. If you don't hear from me after next week, you'll know why. :eek: |

Back to the point, I'm pretty satisfied right now with the collection. Actually I have 3 that need new homes. I even deleted my saved Ovation ebay search. I figured anything interesting would be linked over here anyway.

"The Ol' Trader" and others might be interested.
Judging by the prices I've seen some great guitars go for, it is a buyers market. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | The long range plan is to give my 87 Collector to my daughter when she turns 25 in 4 years and replace it with another or a Book Elite. Will you guys with the Books just wait for awhile?
There might be a few short range purchases that interfere with that, like a 97 Collector. That's something different from what I have. |

Hard to believe I sold mine over 2 years ago.
Guys, someone should jump on that Book Elite.
Work something out with Dave!
I've also got 3 that are gonna be going on the block real soon. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Taylor DDSM
Martin 000-28NB Norman Blake Special Edition
Collings C-10 Sunburst Deep Body
These are the "worst" of the best of my remaining guitars which is a damn scary thought because they are awesome sounding and playing guitars.
Selling the Taylor for the money (only Taylor I have ever played that I thought was worth a shit)
Selling the Martin cause I just never bonded even tho it plays and sounds wonderful
Selling the Collings cause I got an custom built sunburst Collings OM due in less than 2 months. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | If I was a traveling musician, I think I could do it all with four guitars: my new Monoco III custom, either the Adamas 1881 or 1547 prototype SSB, the Tak 75, and the VXT custom (as a backup). Fortunately, since I'm not a traveling musician, I will never have to make such a restrictive decision. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | You all saw my short list and those into this kind of stuff know how hard they are to find.
I was talking with Caleb (of Balsam Range) and he knows of three in the local area here! We'll have fun seeing how this turns out. |

Did you see the SSB 1987 Collectors on the 'Bay? That would be close to the 1547 SSB.
Blues
EDIT: Just checked. It ended @ $900.00!
1987C SSB (Kinda Sorta) |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Blues, yes I did see it, but I'm o.k. right now with the three SSBs in the rotation. I'd consider another 1881, but they're rare. I think I'm pretty fixed for the moment, although I might wander over and take a peek at some things that Stephen is laying out in his yard sale. |
