And we have a winner.

I will post some better pictures and provide my initial impressions soon.

I acquired this one from our own John Kidder, who was great to deal with.

Interesting experience getting this guitar through Customs and the Department of Fish and Wildlife (the guitar was shipped from Canada), but everything worked out.

Wow! Beautiful! Are you playing that at work!?

It was shipped to my office in Manhattan. I would never risk having a guitar delivered and left at my house, especially during the holiday season (porch bandits).

I will take it to Tom Crandall, who is also in Manhattan, for an evaluation and setup shortly.

So what is the diff between the 70 & 80?

Structurally, I can’t say, but the D80 has abalone purfling and rosette, and different bridge pins.

When I get a chance, I am going to dig into the differences between the D80 and D100.
