Whatta ya think ?

Post by digam11 »

Just saw this one on E Bay. Any opinions ? I LOVE the color. Too much ? Not bad ?

Thanks, Mike.

Nice turquoise 330. A bit too expensive though.

I thought, maybe a coupla hun' too high, but considering prices lately and Oly's record in the past, this is almost a hit of sweet air...there's that TURQ 360/12 up now on the Bay, at $2700.00 BIN: 50% higher than this beaut.

So maybe not so bad after all.

I saw this guitar at the King of Prussia show a few weeks back - Olivia's ended up leaving with it, I guess.

IIRC, it was at the Rivington Guitars booth, and not priced very far from where Olivia's has it now.

Yeah, I don't think that's a terrible price at all, considering Olivia's typical prices. It does look immaculate, and if it is overpriced, maybe not more than $100-$200 tops.

go for it! TUR is my favorite non-standard Ric color.

Cheers,
