I got the used Parlor I bought from Jim Holler. When he advertised it as mint he was not exagerating. There is not even the slightest smudge on it and it sounds fantastic! I do a lot of long range rifle shooting and I've always felt better when I know the gun is better than I am - certainly the case with this little parlor!
It is a satin mahogony with the maple binding so you know what it looks like - beautiful. Jim Holler is honest and fair and I can recommend him to anyone. My new D-05 is supposed to get here tomorrow. I know it will be even louder so it will blow my beginner Washburn dred away.
I'm going to try to get pictures posted after the D-05 comes. Donuts will be right behind them!
Before I end this I want to publically thank Jim for the fantastic deal and world class service!

Good work Steve.

Josh,
I guess I was just in the right place at the right time. I wasn't really looking since I had just bought the D-05 but I'm glad I got it. I am really having fun "playing" it and I actually love the satin finish. I just found Kenny Roger's "Gambler" on Chordie and with just three chords that I already knew I even impressed my wife - which is good since she hasn't been as excited about my new way to spend money as I am!
If you are looking for one I'm sure it will show up on here sooner or later.
