Does any one know if there just were not too many of these made or if owners just seldom like to let go? Or perhaps a little of both? It just seems that not many of these show up on the used market too often and when they do they move fast. |

Ken... | Not quite sure "whoooo" the Owl Farm is. Can you elaborate?
If anyone has an L1K they are considering selling, feel free to drop me a note. |

And for the record, I don't own ALL of them. But several have passed through the Owl Farm, and I do sell a few here and there.
Here's a few:  |

Though, I suppose if you were a 16-year-old it would sure feel like it. Heh.
Nice set of 1Ks there, Duke. One more natural/maple and you've got yourself a full house! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
