Dear List Members,

I have listed a 1982 Gibson Chet Atkins CE Custom Shop Model Serial# B069 
for sale by auction on EBay at:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=001&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=110139269073&rd=1&rd=1

You can also go to EBay and search 1982 Gibson Chet Atkins Custom Shop 
Model.  Make sure you look at the one that is serial# B069.

This guitar is in near mint to mint condition.  It has spent most of its 
life in the case.  I am the original owner.  The guitar comes with an 
authentication certificate signed in black ink by Chet Atkins certifying 
that the guitar is one of the first guitars of this type made by the Gibson 
Custom Shop in a limited edition made between January and June 1982.  The 
original sales receipt is with the guitar.  The headstock card is also 
intact with the serial# written on it in black ink.  The serial# B069 
indicates that this guitar was the 169th guitar of this model ever made.

This guitar is very collectible and will only go up in value with time, so 
it is a good investment for the future.  Don't let this one pass you by!  I 
am selling it because I am moving to a retirement community and I only have 
room for two guitars.  I had to sell my original Steinberg and 1964 Gibson 
ES335 also.  Its hard to let this beautiful guitar go; but some lucky person 
will gat it and take excellent care of it I am sure.

I will ship international if paid by Paypal.
