I say it is not our burden to educate the knaves, reprobates and wretches..... But if you must, ask them to consider the fact that Guild uses laminated back and sides on the F-412.

I know you were watching your sodium intake but #3. A dash of salt immediately after getting it out of the fryer

I had a D-4 True American. It does have the laminated arched back but that is NOT an inferior quality in a Guild. It was a great guitar, they are bargains if you can find a good one.

pretty much the ranch dressing of acoustic guitar tone woods.

I will also ask where will you store the cases? If your music room is small but must accommodate the cases as well, you may want to consider a rack that holds cases and a floor stand for the instruments you want for grab and go. Ugh....yeah....the cases. Didn't think that far ahead.....rats...

I read that a while back. Got me looking for a set for camp. Ended up with a nice Lardy set...not top end but nicely weighted and around 40 years old.

Nice...As pretty as that back shot is I love the look of the rosewood looking in from the soundhole....very rich!

I'm not 100% sure but I'm calling it a toe. 1938 Gibby L-00 Not quite a foot...but does an empty boot count?

BTW, thanks too for the "approaching middle age" comment. I sort of think of myself as at the upper end of middle age at 49. Take care, West Ha!! That was in 2006! So where do you slot yourself now days????

ADK-LMG???. True....it tends to get cold up there early, but if there is interest I think it would be great but the reality is with all the Covid issues and the like, this may be better shelved until next year. Hey, free lodging....only have a small galley kitchen but dueling chefs could make...

he looked a tad puffy didn't he. Poor guy.
