Confused. What's "30th Anniversary" about that guitar?

Never mind ... I had so many guitars going through my mind that I posted the wrong link.

Here's the right one ...

They only really sound good if you gloss the neck and headstock....

Actually, they sound great before you do either of those modifications. After you do them, especially the pins of course :rolleyes: , they sound even better!

On a roll this morning Vince? ;)

I may have to show this to SWMBO and get permission to bid. Or maybe I should just call Al and get one of the last red 1687 re-issues. We were going to buy a new car last weekend and the dealer politely declined my offer, so we'll wait another few months.

This Elite is a nice looking guitar.

Check with Al, but I thought all the red ones were gone.

Last time I saw them being talked about here the word was he had two left. Of course, that was at least a few weeks ago. I think the price of the "Book" will be easier for the wife to withstand anyway. I think it'll go for less than $1K. But a guy can dream, right?

The red ones are gone. He has the blue ones. Tony Calman offered to sell a red one a few weeks ago.

Al has two OFC II guitars left. Killer guitars. Not red, though ... much cooler than red. ;)

If I win the 30th, I will NOT gloss the neck or the headstock. Am I the only one who likes 'em the way they are? Especially the neck?

YES.

I have a red 1687 RI under my bed. If anyone wants it badly enough let me know, but my intention is to just store it away for a decade and see what happends

Me too, and the corollary; I have to buy the ones I want now while I can still remember how to play them…
