So, this is a 2000 (yet to be verified by Hans), Westerly built D 55.
I think these are really nice models but I've seen a lot of variation in sound/tone quality in the ones I've owned. I've likely owned a dozen or so of these over the years. Probably 6 have been really, really good, another 4 have been quite nice and 2 (if I remember right) were not great.
I just sold a NH D 55 (superb guitar and the best D 55 I'd ever owned by far) to a LTG member. I hope this one will be as good but I'd be surprise if it is. I also have the 50th Anniv. D 55 which I like a lot.
I wasn't really in the market for one of these but I thought the price was pretty good and PayPal Credit had a 24 month interest free financing promotion going on so it was hard to not go after.
It's really cold here. The guitar arrived today and I'm letting it sit in the case overnight to try and avoid finish checking etc. I'll unlatch the case before I go to bed but won't open it until tomorrow.
Anyway, here's a link to the Ebay ad. I have high hopes for it.
