......ah to have been there then...



My skull could actually pass for one of brads boobs, and has been called worse!

Surely there's a funny retort to this post, but I can't come up with one. It kinda stands alone....

UPDATE: Well best laid plans… turns out that Uli model was both a shallow bowl and a made in China, though originally advertised otherwise, seller realized his error and refunded my cash. Bummed but ended up buying her a nice little applesauce  soprano uke for the anniversary.


Next year I hope to have found the grail for her: 1778T Orange Flame !! ok perhaps the following year - I know these beauties are scarce - but Orange is her favorite color!

Location: Tennessee		I think the blue one with the raindrops was the coolest one of these I ever saw.

I have one of the RFT ones (flames all around). They look cool, but don't let the bling fool you ...they are great playing and sounding guitars.

+1 on the raindrops. they looked so real

I've had 3 red flames and 2 orange ones. Chasen Chantz still has one of the red ones, but the others are gone. I would snag a fully painted one in a heartbeat if I ever saw one again. I've only seen one for sale once. Ditto for the blue raindrops.

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains		The full bodied flamers are absolutely fantastic visually, with a voice different from the rest of the line up, very close to the Elite T models I believe, which is what it basically started as before receiving the custom paint. Regardless, in a blind sound test, my wife's favorite on two different occasions was the full bodied red flamer. I keep it in a prominent location in the bandroom with two red spot lights on it. I bought it here from Tim.

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains		Hard to tell from the photo, but that eBay listing may very well be one of the full body flamer models which typically have a black headstock. The top only flamers usually have a headstock painted with flames to match the top.

It's not like CL charges you for photos.

But that do look like it might be a full flamer.
