That's a rather unrealistic expectation IMHO but more power to the seller. I hope he gets it. Nokie had a few problems getting these out and delivered. I heard stories about years(<=yes plural)of waiting. I remember declining a direct offer from Nokie of $2000.00 at a festival here in New York 20+ years back. He wouldn't give me a definite delivery time nor state the maker (it turned out to be Charvel/Jackson)- red flags to me. I managed to get one with a low serial number years back from a buyer who took the chance. A corvette or an airplane??!! Maybe I'm sitting on a small fortune? J Mo' Top

I’m not greedy; so I’ll trade for a used Toyota Camry or a rudder (preferably blue) that will fit a Cessna 150. The provenance is interesting, but let’s get real; an airplane?!?! I guess that if there was a die-hard Nokie fan out there, he might get a few grand, but any airplane that someone would be willing to trade for a guitar like that is an airplane I wouldn’t want to fly. A friend of mine owns some interesting guitars, Johnny Smith’s old Epiphone Triumph and one of Hank Garland’s old Byrdlands. We’ve discussed value and even the Byrdland wouldn’t get into Corvette territory. — The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. Top

Its asking price is about $6600, and it is located in Canada, not Oregon. After all, a story is just a story.
