This one has been walked around the block a few times. It's the white F holes that are unforgettable... It didn't sell then for that price, don't know why he thinks it will now.

How kind of them to offer free local pickup!

...and people think I'm overpriced!

[Hendrik Ahrend]

It's certainly not an "unsigned Loar" from 1925, looks more like being built in 1926. And given the white painted sound holes, I believe it shouldn't cost more than 65k at the moment.

I can remove the white paint for about $10K, if that makes the deal more attractive......

(in fact, I don't really know why it wasn't done BEFORE the F-5 was marketed???) NOW, it is an issue.
