Shame we haven't got California weather here but I guess this is some consolation.

There is very little description for a guitar with a buy now price of ?3000, and what there is indicates the seller knows very little about it.
 
I am very confident that it won't sell for that price as I was outbid on one about 8 years ago on UK Ebay and it sold for far less than that.  
 
That said from the only picture that is on the page, it looks in good nick.

That is one fine looking guitar but the price is beyond reason.

Alembic Guitar, is a very special guitar, because the whole body is just one piece, is not joined pieces.  
 
I think the seller is a bit mistaken.

Well they got it part right ...
 
...   Alembic Guitar, is a very special guitar
 
That part's absolutely true.

The fact that he listed it under minature guitars probably won't help it sell either.
