My New to Me F20NT (with Pics!) and a question for Hans

[twocorgis]

$550 is a RIDICULOUSLY good price, especially for one in anything close to as good of shape as that baby is.

Thanks Fungus! I was pretty sure I got a good deal. What a neat little guitar.

Nice!

Very comfortable to play, and a handy size. Body depth on mine is a bit over 4" with the arched back. I'm pretty sure that earlier examples didn't have the arched back.

That's the first thing I noticed in the pics. I think that thing's gonna be every bit as desirable as a Hoboken someday. CONGRATS! I'm actually somewhat envious!

Well, I'd probably prefer to have a solid mahogany back, but the prices on the Hoboken examples sure are steep. One of the Guitar Centers near me has a rather rough looking antique burst Hoboken F20 for $1500 :shock:

It's nice to think that this one will be worth that much some day, but I honestly don't ever see myself selling this one. It's just so freakin' NEAT!

Exactly how I feel about ALL of mine!
