For Sale: 2011 Ryan Nightingale Soloist, POST HAS ENDED

rjmulligan · #1 05-13-2018, 05:02 PM

Good AGF friends.. The offering has ended

I am compelled to sell my 2011 Ryan Nightingale Soloist (s/n#: 720-198-67) which I've only had for ~ 8 months.. why??.. because , as we all know, life happens.
I have been 'surprised' by a plumbing problem, necessitating a major bathroom repair which has consumed my entire budget for an incoming Ribbecke build.

I do not like selling my guitars. Admittedly, we are only foster parents / stewards for a while.. but it really is too soon for this one to leave my home.

I bought this finger-style monster from a gracious Texan and am only seeking to recover my outlay. Playing it forward, as it were.

I am asking 8,000.00, $7,750.00 and buyer will assume shipping and paypal, fee processing surcharges. I am happy to correspond with anyone of good will.

Any questions, please ask away.. I will post audio tonight (05/25).. ( at my peril).

I had the opportunity to play a rosewood Ryan Nightingale very recently - a heartpounding experience.

My best to you on your sale

Superb. This is the original ad plus full specs and a demo by Al Petteway.

Good luck with the sale.

NB The original indicates no pickup. Was a pickup installed post-sale? Could R Mulligan ascertain? An oversight perhaps.

as the seller noted, it’s priced right! GLWTS

AGF'rs,

I actually only just read my post for the first time.. and realized I sounded sorta.. jerky..

I did not mean to sound dismissive of anyone not offering 'full boat' without any discussion.. but that's what it sounded like.. (to me, anyway)..

I've edited the post.. let's talk..

Best,

regan

I don't think your response was jerky at all....Actually it was bittersweet because you are grieving one of the kids leaving your home.
