Bump from page 4 on day 4 of listing...

I'm surprised, not another single comment, compliment, complaint, critique or question here?
Over 500 page views but not a word in reply...not even a welcome to the forum?

Hi Big Daddy, Welcome to the forum! You're right WebTalk, surprising there are no comments on an Olson SJ after 500 views. I think when people see a "first" post as someone wanting to sell something there is hesitancy, especially for such a big ticket item. I did the same thing a few months back, but I also introduced myself as being new to the forum, eventually I did get some comments, keep the faith. Wish I had that kind of money, good luck Big Daddy with the sale, and be confident that this is the best place to find educated guitar consumers who will appreciate what you are selling. Jim

Indeed, welcome! Most of us here, know exactly what this guitar is, & due to the economy, opens it up to a select audience. I think what you are perceiving as non-interest, is more like a silent "sigh." Alas, she is untouchable to most of us. But we can look!!

Welcome and nice guitar! Sadly, not in my reach :-/ I played one from a similar time of build. It was quite special, as I'm sure yours is.

Sadly this 10000% i look at this and would jump at it but $13k is a tough nut. Decidedly awesome guitar, Im sure it will sell, just give it time.

Welcome to AGF,

The guitar looks absolutely beautiful. Would love to hear this.

If your selling it because storage space is an issue in your house, Then, hey, I'm a neighborly guy, I'll let you store it at my place indefinitely and I'll even pay for shipping?

B.

You can interpret my silence as "Wow, really exquisite instrument"
Good luck and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum. Lovely instrument! I can't wait to play it. You are aware, I trust, that all new members pass their instruments around the community as a way of bonding with the existing members?!
