Left Handed Koa JP on Ebay

[Twilight Zodiac]

Its been awhile since I've posted on here, but I frequently look upon all the great info and tips and whatnot that this forum has. Love the instruments and the company. So anyhow, I found a Koa JP lefty on ebay as the title states. I however cannot afford such a magnificent instrument, so I figured that a good thing to do is to inform those that can provide a good home for it to be notified of it. I am not entirely sure of the authenticity of the dealer, however, at least its an awesome guitar to look upon. Here is the link:

Yeah, this one has been on ebay for quite a while actually. IMO it's overpriced.
Nice axe though.

The thing is backwards.

Might wanna get a hold of Ed or Lefty.

They like these sorta things for some reason. *shrug*

First time I've seen a lefty KOA....very cool!

 

[buckethead777]

Hey im backwards!

Hey im backwards!

Did I hear a lefty cry from the darkness somewhere? Must be my imagination.

I kid bucket, I kid.

Kind of.

In reality though it's really not. I mean you have the extra cost for it being lefty, then the extra for it being KOA. If you add those two fees to the price of a regular BFR thats around where you will end up.

Yeah i suppose so, but comapring to prices of EBMM guitars found on Bass Central, and Drum City Guitar Land, it is a bit exy. Imo of course

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

That price is correct, and right in line with the other new JPs on ebay. The guitar is shown at a 30% discount from List Price, which is the lowest it can be advertised for sale.

Koa JP $5000 List, less 30% = $3500
Lefty Koa JP $5100 List, less 30% = $3570

Maple top BFR JP
Flame $4000 List
Quilt $4250 List

Man, I love that. I gotta have one. Scooby, please buy it for me. It will help curb your hatred for lefties by helping one out.

Wait, so the MSRP for Lefties is only 100 more than "normal" right-handed guitars?! That's a lot less than other companies charge, isn't it?

that's the average I have seen in my quest over the years. Some charge $200 more.

I am not entirely sure of the authenticity of the dealer.....

i bought my first ball (axis) from that dealer....they are legit...no issues.

...and stunner of a guitar....i'm not into gold hardware, but WOW!

That thing is amazing. One of you lefties better snatch it up. Next to a maple/trem 20th, the Koa JP BFR is probably my most wanted Ball.

 

[edrod]

I want a KOA so bad. Only time, only time

and money

Steve,
Maybe you, me , eddi, donnie, and tim, can chip in and buy it and we will take turns with it. I'll take June and July (because it was my idea), you take august and September, etc...

 

[edrod]

That would be awesome

It'd be like that Simpsons where Bart and co. all chip in to buy the comic book.
