Well after multiple delays in shipping I had a thought , yeah OMG it’s a miracle! Lol
I thought maybe I could get a demo one why not ? the F55E was and I do love heck out her . You get to save a few bucks as well .
So I went back to Johnson String Instruments talked with Justin, he didnt have any but he had thought maybe he could ask the salesman if there was any blemished models . What the heck nothing to loose .
I told Justin I wanted to get a darker stained ( brown verses Cherry I think ) model one that had less of the stripping .
Salesman came back saying they have two , I asked for pics . One had a fretboard repair which was noticeable the other , well the other had a fret dot marker drilled in the wrong spot just off center but in the right location .
They filled it and put in another dot . You can see the little filled hole but really no big deal .
Now that’s the only pic I’ve seen and because of location the pic was a close up so real idea what the color was .
He sent the pics and JOY ! my color is a tad off with the eyes mostly light shade issues but it looks just as wanted . The Top seems less strippie lol then the back and it’s the darker stain I wanted yuppie!
I’ll post a NGD thread when it gets here .
I know it’s not a USA model but I’d gladly upgrade if and when they make one . Lol
