This is a very sweet girl I've had for several years now. Some crazing on the top, light honest wear here and there, but overall very clean and solid, no structural issues whatsoever--no cracks etc.

NW master luthier Paul Stroh installed a new K&K pure western mini which captures the acoustic sound of the guitar amazingly well. Paul also set the guitar up; it plays easy and comfortably, and it responds well to harder strumming too.

Case is believed to be original and is of surprisingly high quality for the era--a very nice hard case, and still in very good condition.

Reduced to $950 local, $1000 shipped. Prefer cash, will consider trades. Pics can be found here:

Specs:

Spruce top, mahogany back & sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard & bridge. All solid woods.
Body: 14" wide, 18" long, 4-1/8" deep.
24 3/4" scale and the width of the neck at the nut is between 1-5/8" and 1-11/16

I'll be darned, same guitar is advertised in N Seattle burbs. :wink:

Mine has a Fishman rare earth humbucker installed in the soundhole. Recently the 1/8 in Vintage Jack I was using failed, talked it over with Brady & decided to have the tail drilled & a regular 1/4 in jack installed.

Briefly talked with Brady about switching the Fishman for a K&K, decided if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm still curious how an F20 sounds with a K&K. I suspect it would surprise some folks.

Do you have pictures of the case ???. :wink:
