Looking good! My recommendation- get a stand from which the guitar hangs- I like the Ultimate GS 100
Best regards,

Thanx for the stand recommendation. I usually keep her in my music room on an "Off the Wall" brand hanger. I see you've sold a couple more since I took this Deacon off your hands.
IIRC, you were working on a Breadwinner with a custom paint scheme back then. Did you finish that up? How about some photos?
Stay cool. |

Seriously though - beautiful instruments!
Anyone seen the Blue Breadwinner on eBay?? |

Yeah, I noticed the blue BW. Seemed a little overpriced to me. Now, if it were mint... |

It'll be interesting to see how the blue BW goes - I think it's a bit over-priced too. |

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada | Wow...so that's why people rag on the old 12-string bridges because they sure look cooler than the Schaller bridges.
Trying to intonate via swapping out string gauges would be a total PITA. |
