With the new radiused and compensated nut, it's absolutely stellar. Sound, playability, and i even like the not so tight helicopter blade top wood.

The condition is rediculous. I've seen so called 'new' guitars hanging on a wall at Guitar Center in worse shape.

Thanks for keeping her so nice Jay.

Radiused and compensated nut?

When Jay put this up for sale, I said this belongs in a museum. Glad you got it!

Location: Jet City		I put up these beautiful pictures for you all, and all you focus on are my balls and nuts?

My excuse... I picked it up from my local guy after the nut job and it was on the blanket before I even put my brand on her. I'm actually one of those nazis. You should see how I wrap nylon strings, everything needs to be completely uniform, the end of one, tucked under the next, etc.

Yes, it should be in a museum but I bought it with the intentions of playing the **** outta it. That's why I had the saddle made. I still have the original one too.

You'll get to see her soon.

Beauty. You could have saved those for the calendar you know.

I remember getting my custom redwood 1713-X and posting pictures in a hurry to avoid an approching storm. Everyone kept telling me to re-wind the strings properly, and I'm not sure everyone believed they came that way from the factory. (But they did!)

I Enjoy all of Damon's pics... really.
Try as I might not to, my eyes went right to that funky ball end.
.
Look at it this way... your pics are so well composed and executed, any tiny little flaw stands out all the more.
.
Your welcome.
I'm trying hard to improve my back handed compliment skills.

I admit, it's not hard to see what they were complaining about, and yes, I fixed it a long time ago.
