Michael Kelly QAB no. 2

I made this baritone from what I believe to be a 2002 pre Hanser Music Group purchase quilted maple Michael Kelly model QAB3-QN in very nearly perfect condition. It is not a Dragonfly, Firefly, or Club Custom – it predates those models and I am unlikely to find another like it so it is likely to be one of a kind. I found no obvious flaws when I converted it other than very light usage ware. It is one of the most beautiful guitars I have made to date and features lots of abalone in the rosette, the top purling, and block style position markers. I have finished the guitar with gold hardware and a sound port.I am selling it with no case on eBay for $649. As of this writing I have a hard case available for an additional $75 plus shipping. Sold - Thanks Ronald!
