VIRGIN GRANNY

what ever the next shortscale build is, the headstock decal has to say FENDER VIRGIN GRANNY

That is not a bad price considering the condition. A regular Coronado II is probably $1500-2000 in that condition. It would look so good next to my baby.

couple of years ago(6) there was a coro 1 at g.c. in indy. and it was like 699.00 and the only issue it had was the binding was comming off, it was still there but needed to be glued back.
i said something in front of an employee about, "damn, that thing is a good deal, probly worth 1,000.00 in that condition" i went back about 3 weeks later and the price had changed to 1200.00
i shoulda kept my mouth shut.

I got my Coronado II at GC for $800.00. They had it marked as a 1973 Coronado even though Coronados stopped being made in 1972.

Fuck "new old stock". It was always a stupid term. Icey has now fixed it.

And yeah that guitar is gorgeous. Though the last pic has me thinking it plays like shit.

Looks like almost all coronados that i have seen, including mine, always in almost mint condition, except a few....

Yeah needs a good setup I think but wow <3

MAN! Killer! I want one!

I'm kinda new still..What the fuck is HAWT mean?

If you got the refund from the Ric then maybe you should think about getting this?

the opposite of KOHLD, i believe.

also, siblings.

All Coronados are in near mint condition because they're not actually very good guitars. I mean, they look hot, and the necks are good. It must just be the weak, weak pickups and the all-hollow construction. People must buy them just to look at.

ummmm tested once on shop and find they "ok" they arent an pair of PAF Humbuckers over a Gibson ES-335 but ok , stronger than mustang´s
they arent humbuckers , they sound like single-coils

but yes they are weak to be put over a hollow guitar.
