I just don't play it much at all, I love the guitar and it's a blast to play and look at, but I've decided to sell it on ebay to fund a Tele build i've been scheming on for a while now. Am I crazy? :|

Yes. :P

Seriously though, if you can get a good price for it and you're going to buy something you're actually going to play I don't see why not. Personally I'd hang on to the Coronado, but that's mainly because I'd probably play it often if I had one. Just be aware that if you ever sell your Tele build you'll probably get less than you paid for it, whereas the Coronado will continue to increase in price. But if you want a player that doesn't really matter.

I know in the long run the Coronado will be worth some serious dough some day, which is why i've been hesitating selling it. But I hardly ever play it at all and can't seem to want to hang on to a guitar that I don't "want" to play all the time. Blah, maybe it's a mistake, but maybe after I sell it and finish the tele build I'll feel a lot better about it...we'll see i guess eh?

Hi Ryan,I can understand you having mixed feelings about selling the Coronado but a lovely guitar like that is meant to be played and it probably be better in the hands of someone who would appreciate it (not saying that you don't)and play it daily.If you do sell it make sure that it goes to someone who truly values vintage guitars and not to some yahoo who will yank out the pups right away and plunk a set of DiMarzios- I have seen that done to so many vintage guitars that I could weep.
