This guitar has been discussed here before (see links below). It recently has come up for sale so I thought I would post a couple of photos to revisit it, especially since the original threads no longer have photos. I’m not sure if the back story is true (two were made, one of which was destroyed in a fire), but it sounds romantic. It certainly is a handsome guitar.

I love it! Beautiful and elegant with just the single pickup- kind of like a Wes Montgomery L5.

That is flat out beeyoutifull! The bound F holes and gold trim just really work.

Rich, gloating is even more satisfying if you post pictures. Then we can gloat with you. :)
