    Well looks like Victor Bakers guitars are commanding higher prices these days. Always wanted to try a couple of his guitars.

    From the listing, "Reluctantly listing my (almost new) Victor Baker Model 15. I waited 6+ months and paid for all the upgrades available. The best playing guitar I’ve ever had...". Then why, I ask myself, are you selling the best guitar you've ever had? There have been listings on JGO that offer an explanation for such a sale, i.e., financial hardship, making room for a new Campellone , injury/pain/age makes the guitar uncomfortable to play, etc. I guess I'm suspicious by nature, but my uninformed reaction is "what's wrong with it?" Just wondering if anyone else has had similar thoughts.
