Congratulations buddy, I live round the corner from Rich Tone and have lusted over that Coronado ever time I’ve been in! I played it once too and loved everything about it!

This Coronado looks so dope. I didn't know I was an Antigua fan until now

Congrats on the Coronado II! There's one (with tremolo system - don't see the wiggle stick, though) over here locally going for $4,299.

I've never had a problem with the antigua burst finish. Then someone on another forum called it a "snotburst" some years back...might have put me off them until now - viva la avocado! :D

I just noticed this pop up on Richtone's website again! Was it just not to be in the end?
