Hi Folks
I'm listing my famous koa kits on ebay.co.uk on Thursday. Don't be intimidated by the GBP price - you can still bid from anywhere in the world and pay through the usual channels with no difficulty.

Of interest to tenor players will be the slotted headstock offered as standard This headstock will accept a chopped mandolin set of tuners to make it a 6 stringer... or if you don't like slotted headstocks (and who doesn't - c'mon, own up?) I can supply a flat one ready for profiling. Meanwhile see how one of my standard concert kits turned out:
