A little sleep is a good thing.

Speaking of ukes... I recently got one of Martin's Iz tenor ukes for a friend. What a wonderful instrument. It proved the point that a good instrument can motivate people to practice more and get better.

A casket fits an earlier post.
Hope it's a guitar.

Or both?

Way to Go Stuball! That was the answer to the riddle I posted but unfortunately the riddle doesn't have anything to do with the thing I bought, LOL! I just threw that out there to see if anyone had their thinking caps on.:peach:

Alright, here is what you all have figured out so far and a new clue for you about the "Thing".

It shares some of the same Origins as Ferrari does. New Clue: Also like Ferrari it was designed and built by a Master.

Frono got it correct on the first page that it is a Guitar.

It is Not Red in color, although that photo of the CrossRoads model has me salivating a bit, No Fair! LOL.

The question of if "Brazilian" is involved is a good one. I have no doubt it is very possible but I am not able to confirm it at this time.

New Clue: It is a child of one of the last Living Masters who is no longer living.

I'll check back later.

You are in the right neighborhood of thought for sure! However it is not a D'aquisto and it is not an Archtop. TX
A ha! Okay . . . judging from your siggy list, I'm going to guess that it's a Collings SJ-series!
