I have been waiting this moment since I heard about the new factory in Oxnard...after saving money and selling few guitars (including my beloved Westerly JF30-12) she is arrived.

The box indicated the guitar is from mid ´19, I don´t think they make many of them.

Wood quality is more or less like my Martin HD28V, I think it´s hard to do better.

The guitar comes with quite a lot of package, besides the quilted case inside I found a green celluloid plectrum, a small clotch bag with certifcate of authenticity, owner´s manual two stickers, a booklet for the L. Baggs Anthem , a nice cloth and what appears to be be a peculiar capo that I need to test.

Yes, the flamed maple back is mighty

And here there´s a picture of the King of 12s.

I am working from home therefore I cannot give her the attentions she deserves, but overall it´s an impressive piece of luthiery, I was right when I decided to get a maple sunburst, the finish if lovely, and unfortunately I am wealthy enough to get a D55 and a F50 to complete the triad of high end Guilds.

Bruce, it’s okay to post pics of other maker’s instruments, since most of us seem to enjoy more than one brand. So when you’re ready, feel free to show us that lovely new Gibson!
