This guitar is SOLD. Thanks, everyone for looking.




Meet Rita. Named after a current literary character with beautiful, flowing red hair and a fiery personality. Extra points to whomever guesses the name of the author of the books. ;)

This is a lightly built guitar, and is very responsive. OOO sized with a short scale neck, it’s brand new and includes your choice of a new black or tweed 'Canadian' TKL case. Also included is a new, clear static cling pick guard, to be installed or not as the buyer chooses. I will allow a 48 hour approval period. Price is 2999.00, which does not include shipping/ins. If you wish to use PayPal, the fees will be added to the selling price.

Thanks for taking a look,

Chris.

Wow, Chris that's beautiful. Some fine lookin' mahogany, and the binding, rosette, and inlay are sure fine. What is that, like your fourth build? Outstanding work.

Don't be shy, that baby is worth a few more photos. 8)

The photos didn't all all come up when I first looked at the thread. I gotta clean up this computer, I had problems at another site earlier. :oops:
