NGD. Yes, another one.
« on: December 31, 2010, 04:15:37 PM »
I've not been around here much this year - I've been working way too long hours to spend much time doing anything else.  But as I've been working, I've managed to tuck away enough spare ££s to spoil myself just a little.

Mr Courier dropped (not literally) this off earlier today.  I've been loving it ever since, but now you get to share some of the pleasure.

This is - quite simply - the best guitar I have. 

And if you've seen my other post today, you'll guess that I have a few guitars which put up a fair bit of competition.  But this one beats them all.  It has all the sounds that I need, feels just perfect in my hands, and has a top that I can't photograph properly ... but it's a deep 3D.

Thanks all.

I just sat and played it through most of last night, and totally love it.

The downside is that it's going to make a number of my other guitars redundant as I can't see me playing much else.

VEry nice indeed - IIRC that finish looks pretty much the same as Dave's Modern Eagle.
I think I hate being indecisive.

If that's the guitar that I remember seeing here ... then you'd be right ... that "washed denim" effect was what I was after on this one.

And I got it   :)

I'd not heard of them either Philly. I'd heard of guitar building courses that are 'Bailey', perhaps this is the same guy?
