AJ All natural. The lot. Just send me the money and I'll keep them here with your other guitars, AJ. |

Location: Taichung, Taiwan | I lucked out and snagged a Cinnamon Honey burst. I think it was a limited run in the first year they made 'em. I'd send a picture but its already boxed up for the big move and i'm not sure where it is in this mess. And there is no way i could sell it anyway, how can you put a price on something like that? |

He's one of my heroes...I mean no disrespect. |

He's one of my heroes...I mean no disrespect. Nor did I mean any disrespect towards you, but many people incorrectly assumed he was blind because of the ever-present dark shades…
Now, let's get back to finding one of those elusive models for gulfcoast…
Did they ever make an acoustic-only version? I've never seen one… |

I'll keep my eyes peeled for another for gulfcoast.
Here's pictures of mine in all it's resurrected glory
