Paul,
A dog can walk just fine on 3 legs.
Dave

Obviously nobody will know what the hell I'm talking about.

Unfortunately, this is not the desirable Glen Campbell Deluxe Balladeer that dates to 1968: shiny deep-bowl, inlaid rosette, large truss rod cover with Glen Campbell signature, with label that reads "Deluxe" with no model number. Most, if not all, of these have an A-XXX or B-XXX serial number.

With a model number 1127-4 and a serial number of F-777, this is a very early artist-bowl model with the textured back that would date to 1969, possibly 1970. Several months ago a 1127-4 from this period in excellent condition went for approximately $300. on eBay, with the added bonus of Glen Campbell's signature written in red on the label.

I don't think so Cliff. I'm pretty sure what he means is "Post Noon" as apposed to "After Midnight".

I think that you could answer a lot of our questions if you could just tell us if the bowl is textured or shiny.

Paul, I guess it depends on what side of the bowl your looking at!

The shiny finish was only applied to the outside of the bowl. Insides were always left natural as far as I know. Dave

Moody, your answer is this:

-Bowl is Textured but,


Standingovation is right

"The shiny finish was only applied to the outside of the bowl. The inside was left natural."
