NGD - Powder Blue 5127
Sweet guitar. Very light and resonant. Great acoustic tone. Excellent DeArmond 2000s sound amazing and very powerful. $399 at GC. There is a black one for the same price though not in as good condition but worth the $399.
Interesting thing about the 2000s is that they pickup some acoustic tone as well, including string noise.

Congrats. Man, there are 5127's coming out of the woodwork today and I can't find one for love or money in my neck of Kanuckistan.

I predict the the 512[5-9] is destined to become a classic.

Everyone loves my 5127... including me! I'm sure you'll enjoy yours!
Dearmond 2000's are also some of my favorite pickups!

I think the 5127 and 5128 may be the two most sought after in that series. $399! Wow, you really got a good deal. I have a 2008 5127. Love those DeArmond 2000 pickups. Congratulations!

Great looking guitar! Congrats.
I SO wish they made a Duo-Jet in that color.

I've seen a CS Penguin in that colour, but not a Duo Jet...  |

That's a great deal! Did it come with the Compton Bridge or did you add that?
Also, is that the stock bridge?
Nice guitar for sure. 400 dollars is a steal!

I added the Compton. Stock was a crappy Adjustomatic.
The black one might still be there (Guitar Center Danvers, MA) for $399 if anyone wants to try online. Looks to be in good shape. I can go confirm if there is interest. |
