Today my new-to-me 12/fret Orpheum OM in rosewood arrived. Thanks Neal for a perfect transaction at a fair price. Only two pictures for now as I was heading to the airport when it arrived...

I had about 10 minutes of strumming before putting it back in the case and closing the door - sweet box, can't wait to be back and get to know it better.

Congrats My Friend! I have a sneaking suspicion that you will love it! They are some of the finest guitars I think Guild or anyone else has ever made. Looking forward to your review when you return.:single_eye:

Does that mean that now that LateStart has lightened Neal of his Orf, we will be seeing a replacement here soon in the Neal collection?

Well, I did just buy that D-35 only a mother could love. It's almost the same!

That Orf 000 is a great guitar that I had the privilege to play for more than a year. My daughter is getting married, and the proceeds from the sale are funding her search for the perfect wedding dress.

Congrats! It is funny sometimes how life throws decisions like that at us to remind us what is more important.. I have sold gear many times to cover family purchases and it is sometimes sad but always rewarding.. Especially when I sold my D-4 to bring in some extra holiday funds.. Not nearly as monumental a wedding dress.. My philosophy is that pretty much anything I have is replaceable.. Well maybe not my D30...:pride:

What a man will do to make his little girl happy. One of mine brought us a brand new baby boy this week.
