Yepper! I let two 'slip' through my wallet in the past, not this time... 
bobbo,
Yepper! Number 41 of 75.
I've reached the end of my 'O' string for now. Gonna have to 'push' a few out to make more 'room'... |

| Beauty! Know you've been looking for one of those for quite some time! Congratulations!
full report is expected upon arrival.... 48 hour playing delay to be expected! your fingers will be tired by then..
Nice Git!
Mine's wrapped in a Tux, your's in old Glory!
These do really look a lot better in person, pictures never do this model justice.
Congratulations Again, and nice talking to you the other night... sorry if I bent the ear too long.

Location: South of most, North of few | Johnny, just a word of caution. Call the seller and make sure he or she knows how to ship a guitar safely. (if there is such a thing) :rolleyes: Congrats on the purchase, and I want to see that thing when you get it. |

I hope Patty is not jelious.
I don't think I even know how to spell "jelious". Of that I'm kinda proud! |

If he did get his hands on it, have him arrested for desecrating the American flag.
Please don't start a whole "flag burning" thread over my comment! |

Might have a lash myself.
I'd like to see an Aussie flag on a guitar but it just wouldn't look right on an "O"

As I said in another post, in my case, I'll not have any buyers remorse in that these don't show up very often and that Ol' Glory has a very special place in my life!  |

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | Ok .... let me get this right ... The guitar YOU bought is a special edition Legend, not the 1776 Custom Legend right? Is yours a deep bowl or mid bowl, 'cause the CL version is a mid. (I still like it, but I like deep bowls better) |

Location: nashville | One of the best looking guitar of all time. If anyone buys the one in Nashville I will be glad to pick it up and hold it till you can drive down and pick it up, and remember to stay of the interstates and see the county, make plenty of lay-overs. Its way to pretty to ship. |
