Okay, I'm going to put this out there. One of the few holes in my collection (if you'd on't count maple) is a rosewood jumbo. I was long disdainful of jumbos for some reason, but my recent experience with my Oxnard F40 (which is finally opening up) has convinced me of their merits,

I'm looking for a New Hartford F50R from New Hartford in excellent condition, preferably from 2012-14, and preferably with the D-TAR. GC had one of these when I was just beginning to look, but I was waiting for some money to come in, and by the time it did, the guitar was gone. I realize this is a long shot but figured I'd try. A natural top is preferred, but a burst would be okay, too.

Factory electronics from that era should be the multi-source system. If you go a bit older, you might find just the Wavelength system and possibly load 'n lock. You might want to consider a Tacoma-era instrument too as they're very similar build-wise to the NH...

Good luck with the hunt, Jeff.

Thanks, Chaz. There have been some Tacomas around. But I'm really holding out for New Hartford (unless there was an iced tea burst '07 Tacoma). And I'm hoping for the full Mutlisource. I still remember how good it sounded at LMG IV.

Yeah, only 7 on reverb right now -- none out of New Hartford. And of the 10 sold listings, only one was out of New Hartford. Good luck! F50R is the right choice! I think I'll break mine out just to confirm. ;)

I’m currently selling a 2012 F50 locally, if you’re interested. We’re moving, downsizing, and I need to thin the herd, will be selling one of my D55s next. I will miss this F50. I’d be willing to ship it.

Great guitar (I have the CE version), but that's not what Jeff is looking for. He wants the full bling rosewood F50R.
Right. I care more about the rosewood than the bling, but on the F50R it seems you can't have one without the other. Also, although I do play a song capo'd to the ninth fret, the cutaway is not useful for me.

Good luck Jeff. I'm always on the lookout for you!
