      @SFMCfranky (Sorry if my reply came off as a bit brash. Certainly not intended)
      Most of my favourite guitars, electric and acoustic, seem to be 24 3/4".
      I remembered playing a Santa Cruz Firefly many years ago (which was great), and wondered if maybe your guitar had the same 24" scale or something similar. I also have a Collings Baby with a 24 1/8" scale, which is just about the perfect couch guitar.

      Time to do some playing, not a whole lot that beats playing/practicing guitar in my opinion.

          That looks less worn than my 10 year old R9!

            Hi guys, it's been a while since I didn't post something so here's my '72 les paul deluxe conversion to humbuckers made a long time ago. I bought it in a really bad shape and since I'm an occasional luthier, i tried my best to give her a second youth. So here's the before/after

            Before:

            And after sanded it a lot to return to the original varnish, I put some Joe Bonamassa's SD custom shop pickup, some '59 parts, all the electronics redone also and now here it is.

            It's one of those which when you try it it's like there's something special happening, so happy to have it in my collection, for sure the best guitar I ever owned.

                        @Freeman Wow! Did you get to pick the body or did you give them specs? Size, shape, weight,...

                        Exciting!!!

                          @goosehd It's a full custom.

                          It's going to be a 7 string baritone Tele Deluxe.

                            I love the fact that passions have their own language. I was at a party recently and was describing the damage to SAKURA that me and P managed to do, to a friend. After my monologue, he said, "well, I understood about 10% of that"....

                                  @Freeman Very nice! Who's the builder? (Not exactly your average specs). Some great looking pieces of wood.
