Went up to see Iffy today for a little visit and some playing. Had one of the worlds best Philly steak sandwiches with him and his lovely wife, a couple of beers, got to play his fabulous 1680 (WOW) and ended up bringing 4 guitars back home when I only took three up. :rolleyes: He wants me to check it out, kick the tires, and just send him payment when I can. I think he should be selling used cars or something! Anyway, he's getting around pretty good with just one crutch and is improving every day. Good to see you again Johnny!

Likewise Jim! Super afternoon...

BTW, Jim took a '97C for 'tire kicking', NOT the 1680! :D

I was worried that it might not be available if I every get any more money in the alleged guitar fund, but then I saw that it was TJ. I'll wait.

I envy you guys! wish there were members closer here to "bond" with. Of course it wouldn't be Iffy and TJ. 2 great guys I only know thru this site and a phone conversation or 2.

I tried to fit the 1680 in one of the cases I had there, but it wouldn't fit. :D That 97 is sweet though.

Jim,

I keep telling you that the 97C is a great guitar. I'm going to try your idea for putting a strap knob on the treble side of the neck.

I keep hearing very positive things and getting positive vibes about the 1680. Santa has been generous this year, bring it on.

I still have TJ's '97C that I adopted back in March. That's the one he was hoping to recapture. But like any good used car salesman, I pulled the ol' bait and switch! "Hey, just take this one home for a test drive."
