    Absolutely no financial interest, but having the opportunity to try Ken Sager's Old Wave OM this Spring, I'm amazed that the Blonde freshly listed in the Classifieds hasn't sold yet...
    Man it's been there for over two hours!
    Seriously, if it plays anything like Ken's (and that would be "like buttah"), this is a "must have."

    I played it at the Mandofest brunch earlier this year. Bill spanked a home run with that one. A great musical instrument, indeed!

    Oops, I thought that was Ken Sager's for some reason, so I haven't played it. But I did play Ken's and really, really like it a bunch.

    If it's anything like mine, and I'm sure it is, it'll be a killer instrument for somebody.

    Do it. You know you want it.

    Darn, I got here too late. I must have been on vacation. I assume it sold because it's not in the classifieds any more. If it didn't, can the seller contact me?
