What do you guys think? Any experience with this one?

First one I've ever seen or even heard of. Looks good. Almost sounds like a fighter plane. :wink:

This is the current make/model F15: as far as I know, the WW1 models came in linen and steamed birch and not hog or maple.

Steamed birch with the afterburner burst, stunning! :shock:

Hi Guys,

I'm a newbie and will be posting my info shortly to you great guys. I thought it best to respond about the F-15 actually an F-15CE) if you were still considering buying it. This is a rare guitar made from '90-'91 with only 247 produced. My brother has one he bought new in 1991, a F-15CE like this one except cherry red color. It's solid mahogany top, sides, back (arched), and neck. Has nice Fishman under saddle transducer. 16" W x 4 & 1/2" D. 24 frets 24 &3/4 scale. It's like a dread and a cannon with beautiful tone. Hope this helps!

Talk with you soon.

FYI: Another one of these just popped up in the DC area, and this appears to be the same model AJ refers to with onboard electronics.

Welcome aboard, by the way, AJ!

Wow! If this is as good as it looks in the pics, this is a steal. Most folks just don't know about this model, but it's a real gem of an acoustic/electric.

Hello w eddy,

No, it is pointed. The F-15CE was made for a short time and about half-way of it's production life the model changed from a pointed to a rounded style cutaway. That's what you have. What's the serial number of yours?
