Location: Upper Left USA | Offered here first is a project that has evolved and involved several OFCers. either for parts or suggestions.
This is a refined Early Breadwinner that you will either love or discard.
The body is in a warmed natural Mahogany with a lacquer finish. Some small imperfections in the finish but no dents or scrapes.
The neck has been stripped down and now has an oil finish. Black plastic Tuners (any replacements would leave holes) and a redone figured Walnut Pegface and Gold Ovation Logo under lacquer.
Ebony fingerboard with excellant frets. Some marbling in the ebony, very nice.
The Pickguard is flaming, figured Koa, with a matching TRC, and is fit with the Pickups and board recently aquired from "Morgan".
I chose an early nylon Bridge. It plays and sounds great. No case but will pack in a gig bag and ensure it is protected. I am a few days away from finishing a figured Walnut PG for this as well. This package will provide some choice this way.
I can email pictures since the Gallery is down for anyone that is interested in viewing or buying.
$800 including shipping to the main 48. |

Location: Upper Left USA | Ok, finally figured a way to post a pick.
BTW - before taking Calendar quality photos - move the dang wheelbarrow!

Location: GA USA | That wheelbarrow can be Pshopped easily enough. I'm still wanting to see one of your guitars with an ebonized pickguard.
By the way, Midtown Music in Atlanta has a Viper with some dings for $299. Pickguard has the usual crack at the plug. |

Location: Upper Left USA | BruDev is the owner of a fairly darkened Walnut Viper III PG. It may not actually go with anything though. I prefer to have the whole guitar so I can assess tones and textures.
Bruce, If you haven't used it tell me what you need/want and we'll get-er-done! |
