Waterloo WL14 XTR - Now SOLD

[obrienp]

Hi Folks,

I am testing possible interest in buying my Waterloo WL14 XTR. This is the original Waterloo model made by Collings and is pretty much a replication of the Kalamazoo KL14 but without the build issues, although they deliberately leave excess glue on the bracing to be faithful to the original: no seriously! The letters after mine mean that it is the X-braced version with truss rod and it has the more shallow variant of the V neck. Mine is fitted with a L R Baggs Anthem SL pickup system with a discreet sound hole mounted volume control, plus trim adjuster that sets the blend between the under saddle piezo and the internally mounted microphone. It has a strap button jack socket. It is set up for 12s. Mine has seen some use, so has picked up a few minor dings and scratches but nothing major.

The guitar is currently out with a potential buyer but if she decides against, it will be available later this week. I am looking for £1,550 ono. If this would be of interest please let me know.

Here are a couple of photos, I will supply more when it comes back on demand.

Heads up folks: this guitar is now available. I will post some more pics when I get it back from the person who was trying it.

I sincerely wish I could buy this mate. I played Lacerta's same model and I thought it was stunning and so versatile. Whoever gets it are gonna be one heck of a happy bunny! I'm kinda gobsmacked it's still available!

Good luck with the sale 🙂

Best,
Lew

I have the LTR version, and a WL-K, and if I ever see a WLS-DLX for sale I'm buying that too. Cracking guitars, and yours is reasonably priced. If no one on here is tempted, I don't think you'll have a problem shifting it elsewhere.

If I were in the UK I'd offer you a NRP Tricone with HHighhlander on trade...

Hi Gaucho, I would have been tempted too! I would love to have a good tricone. However, I think the guitar has sold. We are just sorting out the details now. I’ll mark it as Sold in the heading when we have completed.

Cheers!

Now sold folks. Thank you for the comments and encouragement! I’ll be sad to see it go but needs must.

Still got a nice Gibson J45 Standard and a Supro Coronado II with tremolo to go. See my ads on here. Grab yourself a bargain quality guitar!
