Hey John
If I walk north by northwest from Grahms house, I'll run into MY house in Alaska, or as we say, The End of the Food Chain. If you walk out a ways into the woods, you ARE the food chain.
I thought you might be on to something for a while with the Russian/Red spruce.
Got to wondering why you never see a Russian made guitar. They are made everywhere else, right? I've never seen one and Russia is a just short paddle on a surfboard from here. We have plenty of Russian made Russians and I have some Russian kids I'm teaching guitar and violin to.
I even learned some Russian that I already forgot like, PRACTICE. Russian is very easy to forget.
Of course they do make guitars, but would you want one?
I found this site you might find interesting, so don't quit your day job just yet.

Check out the guitars on the left. I like the wood description on the Ural model. "Something Heavy" and on controls "Too Many to Mention"
Given that much info, Red Spruce from Russia might translate to, "Something Red" or maybe "Something Light" Works for me.
RT 66- "Hey Cap! Whats that top wood on your new D50?
Cap - "Uhhh, Something Red"
Currently this outfit called Russtone XXI is the largest manufacturer of guitars in Russia. Only been around 12 years and making the usual Fender Gibson knockoffs.
Been meaning to ask.
I'm real new to this whole forum thing and was wondering how ya'll post a picture. I recently figured out how to email a picture from "My Pictures", so how do you go from there to here or is it something different?
Looks like Grahm has it down to a science.
Appreciate any info.
