WHOA!!! This whole deal is such a twisted tale. Was this a shop or a private deal. I seem to recall it was a music store. What a misrepresentation. Otherside of this is what a person to end up with it. RoyB, I find your addition to the HFC to be real cool. :angry: Thanks for joining in. That Mahogany body looks incredible. May I suggest simple Cream binding and no top should you be able to find a similar grained block of mahogany. Oh and no pickguard.
