Location: Seymour, Tennessee | Yeah this one kinda jumped out at me, I was having some strings put on my Dad's 68 DB and it was hanging in the store and I got it that day.
My Daughter doesn't play but she said she has dibs on it.
Kotadawg, I hope you got a speeding ticket on the way home :) |

Different, but nice.

Love the background as well... hope no one fell off the roof getting that shot, lol. |

I've never played one, but I always thought these seemed like really nice guitars. I like the idea of having a full 24 frets on an acoustic. |

| That's really nice - most of their design attempts are way over the top unless you like to wear spandex with sequins and sparkle dust every day but that guitar is nicely done.
Looks kinda green in the picture; is it green or a grayish colour. |

Not on the roof, just on the rail of the deck on the back of the house, it's wide enoug for the stand to fit but I had my Daughter hold onto the bottom in case a gust of wind came up:)
Designzilla:
Wasn't trying to sell it, just trying out the photo-posting thing really.
Prbably the only ay I'd sell it would be to finance an Adamas but I doubt it :)
I've seen a few pop up on E-Bay over the past 6 months, they weren't mint (mine's pretty close to mint I'd say, just a little slight yellowing of the white binding around the bowl and neck) but the prices were reasonable.
The super-shallow bowl makes it really comfortable and it's plenty loud enough. Sounds good all the way to the end of the frets.
Joe:
It's a greyish/blue metallic, just looks green cause of the background I guess. Platinum colored machines/tuners/inlays. Has 1988 at the 12th fret. |

All you need to do is create an account, upload your pictures to a gallery and then you can copy paste them into any thread you want. There's other hosting sites available but photobucket seems to have less advertising BS for now anyway. |
