:lol:




My post is not meant as a commentary on whether it's "good" or "bad", "right" or "wrong", I'm simply surprised at the selling price.

Howdy,

Hey, I have a pre-rosewood endcap bamboo Olwell. Since they are clearly no longer being made, the law of supply and demand will surely make mine more valuable! I'll take bids starting at $1000 :)

Best,

Dave

I had the chance to play one of those F for some time and it certainly was great fun.

$435 not so funny though. :boggle:
