Title: Walnut Skylark on ebay
Post by: brb9911 on June 16, 2008, 10:53:07 AM: Right now there's a starting bid at $2000 for this; no serial number is listed, but it appears to be a walnut Skylark without LED's and the standard black backplates. I'll be curious to see what she goes for.

And, yes -- it appears I've finally figured out how to properly link something; only took me 39 posts. Not bad for a guitar player! ; )

It looks like it came from a nearby piece of wood.

Post by: tdukes on June 18, 2008, 07:04:07 AM: This looks like the guitar built for Quincy Reed in 2003. link (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=7158) I tried to email bishopqdog@copper.net (mailto:bishopqdog@copper.net) to be sure, but it bounced.

I have just about convinced my wife I should bid on this guitar, but am concerned about the seller having no feedback.

Quincy, could you email me (tdukes@austin.rr.com (mailto:tdukes@austin.rr.com)) or post here to confirm that you are selling the guitar?

Thanks,
Todd.
