Guitars anyone???

@goosehd Cheers D! I've not tried many of the newer vibe pedals on the market but the 1968 does pretty much what it says on the tin - I replaced a Chorus pedal for it on the board and use it mostly for the enhanced Chorus effects. I'm a big fan of the band The Hoax, who the designer, Jesse Davey played guitar for. He really knows what he is doing when it comes to pedals and tone!
Check the tone at the 4 and half minute point in this demo! - topic:timeago-later,13 days

@LewisStonehouse Wow! Someone is definitely on Santa's good list!
-
I’ll be on the domestic naughty list when that shows up
-
@LewisStonehouse Very nice! "Oops" indeed
Enjoy it, nothing quite like new guitar day. Would love to see a few pics once it has arrived. -
Yeah I’ve found I’ve slipped into a habit of aimlessly noodling with my electric guitars, so thought a nice acoustic would get me playing more meaningfully again. I’ll get some pictures up when I get it
-
@LewisStonehouse I’m drooling a continent away…looking forward to the pics
-
@LewisStonehouse Nice pickup and looking forward to pics as well!!
-
This just landed, too busy playing it to take loads of pictures. Might get some better shots later. It sounds amazing
-
@LewisStonehouse Looks great!
Enjoy the guitar and merry christmas!I was just sitting here noodling on this one.
-
@LewisStonehouse That is beautiful!!! So damn beautiful and can guess that the tone is just as nice…Please enjoy and share often
-
@LewisStonehouse congratulations on that fine instrument. It is absolutely beautiful and I’m betting it sounds even better. Post more pics down the road. Love the aged color of the spruce top

Couple more snaps of the Adi top and EIR back
-
@LewisStonehouse damn the rosewood is as beautiful as the spruce! Just gorgeous
-
It’s tasty for sure. My fingers hurt, I haven’t played this much guitar for years

Here’s some pics of my 1938 D28 and a video of me playing it in the backyard over the summer. It’s a monster
IH-666S-21 in the shot there

@chillmonroe niceeeeeeee! Is there a story behind how you came by it?
-
@LewisStonehouse pretty good one. It was at Guitar Center and they thought it had been refinished because black light showed some splotchiness.
Thing is, black light alone isn’t enough to make that call, at least not since llike the 1980’s. Nowadays we also look for cracking and shrinkage of the rosette and binding as it expands and contracts under new nitro lacquer.
None of that was evident, so I bought it with a three day return policy and had it shipped to my luthier. He confirmed that the finish was completely original. His thought was that someone had spilled a cocktail on it at some point and just wiped it up with a rag, since the splotch looks just like rag strokes and alcohol would leave that splotch in black light but water would not. Either that or it’s a hell of a lot of bodily fluids haha. . But again, can’t see any of that without a black light.
So yeah, due to some good old due diligence on my part and some all too typical idiocy on theirs, I basically stole the damn thing.
