Thanks @bmh, @louis lasky and @Carmel Cedar.

Have had a few inquiries and have a feeling the next owner of this incredible set of Birdseye maple so beautifully crafted by Ben will identify themselves very soon.

Don’t miss out. Very hard to find Birdseye maple of this quality.

I've added a few photos, including of the top and guitar with case. They are also added to the GooglePhotos link.

This is also now listed on Reverb (at a higher price).

A few people showing interest and one person was a go but got overruled by the finance committee. ;-)

Point being, if you've been eyeing this gorgeous Wilborn, don't mess around!

Best, Eddie

Thank you @MWB5007 and @JAMKC.

This is on hold for the day. If it doesn't sell, I'm probably going to close the listing and consider re-listing when my Arum arrives in February.

Word to the wise. Do not play instruments you have listed. It causes agony and heartache. LOL.

Sold on Reverb with a back-up AGF buyer waiting if Reverb buyer doesn't pay within 72 hours. Will close thread once payment is received from either sale.

On one hand, I'm thankful to sell a nice guitar in these difficult times. And, on the other, I'm saddened to see this one go, but find solace in knowing Ben will have my Arum ready in February. Here are two tease shots of that build, one of the stunning ziricote back and one showing it with the Tunnel 14 redwood top.

Congrats on your sale and new Arum. My Wilborn commission is right after yours in March and I can’t wait!

@BlackKeys36, that's great. They'll be stablemates! Look forward to hearing more about your build (feel free to PM me).

Closing thread as I tearfully box up this lovely Lion. Hope she roars many beautiful notes for her next owner!
