    Little did I know it was sitting in Greece, 1.5k miles from my place.

    Wow! Congrats CJ! You definitely went the distance and earned that beauty.

    These were the original Facebook posts. The seller got a lot of a lot of people laughing. I guess they're not laughing now!

    The lengths (and distances) we go to acquire what we want to play... mandolin aside, it sounds like a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Maybe someday the PRBs will get to do a concert in Athens and he can reconnect with the seller and show him what a Lloyd Loar F5 is (at least partially) all about! Good on ya CJ!
