You're gonna love it. :) Mitzdawg Posted 2006-05-25 11:42 AM (#253590 - in reply to #253584) Subject: Re: My New Guitar!!!!! Joined: July 2004 Posts: 766 Location: New Hampsha See? "appearances" can be deceiving - this is that very unit - very apparently smashed! Actually, better than I was looking for! Now I won't have to destroy the Balladeer with the cracks that I also bought. Some fun research needs to be done- What's the cost of a factory top (will they even sell one?) vs. making one from scratch; If they'll sell a top; what top to put on it? Original spruce? Or should I (can I) choose another Elite top (Koa? Walnut?)Or maybe an Adamas top? Or make a top from scratch and the choices are wide open? It's like Christmas, sorta!

If you decide that you just want the neck off of the thing, let me know. I'd be interested in the Spaceage Plastic Bowl to use for a salad bowl at BBQs this summer. :) leftovertion Posted 2006-05-25 4:41 PM (#253592 - in reply to #253584) Subject: Re: My New Guitar!!!!!
