BTW, "cloth" bowl?
Craig, it takes up less space in the case.

Of course Paul will get tamale sauce stains on it, and you do have to iron it occasionally...


...he means cloth-laid fiber-glass.

If you heard the guitar as it was originally, you'd cringe. Horrible sound.

Cloth bowl = Hand laid fiberglass bowl = masturbatory bowl......

Karl, in Germany did the same sort of thing with a Deluxe Balladeer that I sold him about 3 years ago. According to him, it turned out great!

I used to have a 78 Legend as you know, Paul...

Interested in knowing how it turns out.

I will. I'm going for a wood topped tone meister. Even better than the CL 30th's. We'll see.....

A week off from the relentless need to work for a living and a trip to MWoody's neck of the woods to just sit and relax on the shores of the Puget Sound with the love of my life and partner for 17 years and our beloved dog.

Enjoy, Greg. Sorry I didn't get to your neck of the woods last week. We stayed on the west side the whole time.

I had no plans to buy myself a Christmas gift. It's been a great run this 'O' year. But wait, uh oh, what's that I see over yonder... ?

It's one of those proto PF-22s that I didn't pull the trigger on when Miles had 'em on here.

Well the trigger finger has been honed
And Woody's PF bass is my own

And to all a good night...

Iffy - at least you and Damon are at opposite corners of the country or one side might start sinking from all of the gits!

Congrats!

Got Mine...

Black Cherry Burst always looks like crap in any online photos.
It looks better in Real Life. Even these photos suck.
The best representation of the color is the one in the case.

Just wanted to Share (Brag) :cool:

[BTW- My 1771-CG is on eBarf for $270 if anyone needs a Christmas Present.]

Aw, jeez. I guess I just bought myself a litle something. I made a stupid low offer on a brand new guitar ... and it got accepted. Oops. ;)

Nice guitar.

I wish they would accept stupid low offers on varnish finish mandolins.

There are advantages to a crappy economy. :rolleyes:

Sorta sad... The guy that I just got the Ultra from isn't a regular eStore, and he thanked me cuz I just helped him pay rent on his brick-and-mortar store.

I stopped in Apple Music yesterday... I was there for about an Hour and I was the only one in the store who didn't work there!

Bob, I got one of those off that store too for a ridiculous low bid also. One of, if not THE best sounding O's I've played IMHO. Nice grab.

For Christmas (as if I need an excuse) I got one of those Blueridge guitars everyone on the Martin forum is talking about. A BR343, which is an OM size. All solid, spruce top with mahog back and sides. Really is everything they say, and cheap too.
