That's a beauty - the blonde finish is really nice!

What year is it?

Long after you've forgotten about how much you paid for it, that guitar is still going to be beautiful and awesome. Congratulations!

Well said, Walter. Well done, Steve. Congratulations indeed. I scrolled down to join the conversation so quickly that I thought you had got a 70s Bluesbird. But no, it's a 1960 Aristocrat. Su-wheet!

If that finds it way into the box rather than the Starfire, I wouldn't be unhappy. :wink:

Wow, congrats! I saw the asking price on Ebay and I don't think you overpaid at all.

So did you end up getting the Starfire in PA too?

I did in fact get it for less. I wish I had more time to spend in the city but the parking was rough and I was in front of a hydrant.Nice shop though. I am seriously considering sending it to Mr keller for a restoration.

I wouldn't change a thing on that guitar. It's beautiful. That's just me, though, and it's not mine. They are kind of rare.

She's a beauty Steve! Love the blond finish. That's a major score. Congrats. BTW, Mine is a birth year for me, but to be honest, I don't even care. These guitars are amazing.
