Even though it has the fatter neck, I could learn to love that.

If that sells for above 3K, I know where you can get another one!

[Feynman]

That’s, damn.   

[hamerhead]

That looks great, but black guitars are like black cars: you clean them more than use them.

[Feynman]

What if you don't use your guitars at all?  Do you still have to clean them?

I'm kind of glad that I'm a little anti-victory-inlay, and that for me the spruce top is important on a Newport.  Mind you, I don't know why I think the spruce top is important, but there it is.

That's a beautiful guitar, and I doubt they'll have any difficulty selling it.

 

[BubbaVO]

That is Frigg’n amazing.

And it's gone.  Anyone here get it?

Yeah, the defeat inlays were much better. 🤣

[Jakeboy]

Day-um.

[soli'd]

Love the looks of that one, but I'm with @Feynman, it's gotta be a spruce top.

As for the inlays, the problem for me is more the number of them than the type.

As a side note: that seller has some other really unique guitars (and other gear) for sale in their shop.

ETA: this standard reminds me a lot of @BTMN's ultimate.  minus the chickenhead knobs

I'm sure they paid the person selling it to them at least $8000.  You can probably talk them down to $8995.  🤣
