Thanks to the extreme kindness of our friend Stephen T, my 30th birthday i will always remember. So here's a couple of pictures. One of a kind OVATION. The newest member of my family.
I can't thank Stephen enough. A 3oth birthday is something special.
Thank you very much

Location: Studio City, California, USA | What can i say? I am a very lucky man. My wife baught me a 12 string 1979 Electro Acoustic Glen Campbell for my birthday. And the thunderbolt is my birthday gift to myself since i couldn't find a 1993 Elite 1868-C.
So yeah, lucky me I have a great wife and some great friends.
Thank you very much

Regardless.....glad it is staying in the OFC family. Too many of the rare and unique guitars seem to be finding their way to Japan where they are never seen again. |

You know I am famous for Stevie's EZ payment plans.

BTW, did you ever find the alleged artist signature on the top? |

Whilst I appreciate the mando offer, I'm really not in any position to buy anything new right now (unless I can possibly marry-off the ex-wife here somewhere . . .)
cwk2 was gracious enough to offer me up a very nice mando of his to spend the Winter in my MusicRoom, so (hopefully) by Spring I should know if my fingers are even "MandoWorthy" . . . |
