This morning I finally purchased the guitar I've been looking at for a long time! It's a 1966 Coronado in cherry burst, everything is original and in perfect working condition, no buckle rash, everything mint condition, original case and case candy. I'm so incredibly stoked for it to come this next week!

And per forum rules/obligations...pics will be posted as soon as it arrives (and has been played of course)

Good for you!! I'm looking forward to the pics!!

Great choice .. ENJOY IT!!

Where is it coming from?

Very cool Ryan. I remember when they came out when I was a kid. I had the opportunity to play a few in my lifetime and they're reall sweet sounding guitars.

Wow! Sounds like a nice guitar. Can't wait for pics.

Local to me. There arent too many of those out there.

You're certainly lucky to get a cherry-burst from that era in that good of a condition,I can't wait to see the little darling.

I didn't Lose my mind, I traded it for this guitar.

It's coming from wyoming, it's similar to the one in that link though. However mine is '66 with "18 Dec 66 B" on the neck, and in better shape than this one you've linked to. So excited!

Thanks for all the excitement from you guys as well!

Sweet guitar, it's been listed here for a few weeks now. I may make an offer myself

Congrats on the purchace. I really cannot wait to see those pics.

Thanks rkreisher, I'll definitely post some good pictures as soon as it comes

Congrats! If all goes well my next guitar should be a Coronado. If all goes really well it'll be a '68 Wildwood, but if all else fails there's always ebay.
