hey everybody, I havnt been around the forum too much lately, life had just gotten in the way...and had stopped posting photos a while back when i was still active...anyway first i just want to thank GAD so much for his time, knowledge and work. I certainly appreciate all of this and owe a forthcoming donation to this next phase of LTG.
I have some photos to catch up on!!
lets start with the craigslist score to end all craigslist scores, a full Brazilian rosewood F-312 with INSANE figuring in the rosewood back. the sides and even spruce top have figuring as well. the back is just dreamy as the hue of the wood changes in the knot/figured areas as it moves. i have never seen another one like this. it also has a 2 inch wide nut and fret board...and the board is dead flat. have u played a 20-inch radius board? this one might be 20,000.
hope to get more/better pics soon, really just trying to show that figured back as best i can. kinda need to see it in the flesh.
THANK YOU Tom Jacobs for restoring this piece. The neck and head were clean on this, but the body was a train wreck, before he fixed it.
