Oh yeah - of all of those guitars I posted, only one remains.

About the only nice top I've owned was this '96 FM I later shipped out to @capridriver in Germany. An excellent guitar, blingy top or not.

Can confirm.

He bought all of my guitars without haggling or asking any questions, and then he KEPT them!

And, upon my death, you'll get the Baker back.  That doesn't erase my "dickness" in your eyes?  I can change the will...

Since we're celebrating Ultimate tops, this 2004 in Brown Sugar found a new home this week. Someone scored a gem a few days ago, and I hope it was an HFCer! Custom Order Studio Custom with Ultimate flame on Korina (!), ebony board, an extra Victory and headstock binding. Sold for $2300 at a shop in NC before I could post a PSA. Who got it? I wanna call dibs!
