Well, well, aren't we lucky? 
A "super rare" Concord for sale! Rolling Eyes

Not pristine but good condition. The seller confuses the aging patina on the neck for "roasted maple" which indicates he doesn't know as much as he thinks he does about this Westone.

The body colour has also aged very nicely and it would be a lovely compliment to my black version....except for that outrageous price!!


CDN$750 and no case!

and not just about Westone guitars   Roll on Floor Laff  

i notice the strings are wrapped around the tuner posts the wrong way Face Palm

also, two of the strings miss the hold down buttons that the strings should go under   Face Palm Face Palm

i guess he doesn't know why the angle of the strings coming off the nut is wrong That\'s nuts!

I didn't even bother to look that closely.
Good eye Mike! Razz

Just because...I messaged the seller with a few comments including the roasted maple comment, the string thing, and the fact that although they were hard to find they were not "super rare". Gave him a link to the website too.

He responded:
Thanks I didn’t realize I put roasted maple Another guitar I had did must of autocorrect
Then he added:
As for the strings I am well aware I received it like this and haven’t changed them yet
 He also said:

Seeing as there are only 1 other available online I’d say it’s a super rare find.

Ya know, some people are just not beyond the intelligence of a house plant. geek

Idea i would think that if you are asking for a premium price, these things would be corrected before listing it for sale

but hey, that is just me   Confused 2

That's always been my stance too.

Would you buy a car that was filthy dirty and full of junk food wrappers?
Or a house with weeds all over the lawn and dirty floors?

Why the hell do you see so many guitars for sale that are covered in dust and have strings that are green from corrosion? Moreover why would you (or could anyone) play something like that?
