:oops: Well, not too much to it really. I couldn't help it.....temptation got the best of me.......I was helpless! :shock: Zilla was trying to get rid of a pristine JF65 and I'd been wanting something different from my rosewood dreads and have always loved the looks of a JF65, in fact I consider it to be a dressed up F50. Anyway, I saw one listed on Ebay with a reasonable BIN and wrote the guy.........little did I know at the time it was Zilla, but we got around to asking each other if we were members here at LTG, and it just went from there. She's coming next week. :D Gosh it's hard NOT to buy these things......... an expensive, very real addiction, and I love every second of it. One of these days I'll sell all but 1 and buy a Harley. :wink:

I'm sure she is. So he might get a chance to play it, when she's willing to put it down for a while :!:
How are those lessons coming along, Kerry :?: I'm expecting you and Cid to be providing some duofication in Arlington!

That's right, that's what you play, isn't it Russ? I'm hoping for big sound, crisp highs and more than adequate bass ( I don't expect much :wink: ), is that a fair description? Not to mention that they are beautiful guitars. In fact, you've got a JF65 6 and a JF65 12, don't you Russ?

:lol: Hey, I think she likes her D30 too Russ, but I'll tell her. The 12 you posted is a beaut, even if the bridge has been replaced. I've already got a maple 12.....a JF30. Maple does make cool guitars.

Thanks,
West
