    Never seen one fade to this kinda shade

    Gibson or not...

    and I love the grain...

    EDIT: Now I'm not even sure it's THAT faded....its not quite a lemonburst..and certainly not a cherry or tobacco.almost looks like Osage...very cool

    Stunning. Absolutely stunning. That's like beautiful coffee table top grain. I'd like to see that one in person.

    me too!

    If those old japanese guitars just had some decent inlays...geez.. think that would be the prettiest plaintop I've seen. The inlays on Burny, Aria,Greco, Tokai and Edwards are just crap (barring a few of the Tokai reborns and other really high dollar/high end "lawsuits") But for the avg run of the mill lawsuit, only the orvilles and japiphones have decent inlays (at least for figure...they still have tons of filler more often than not)

    Beautiful. I love the fretboard. Not necessarily the inlays, but the woods looks nice.

    very sweet looking guitar indeed.
    My own brew of acoustic folk-music:
    Myspace
    Facebook
    Youtube
    Buy digital or physical album
    Or you can just PM me...
    Thanks for listening...

    Has a nice old school look to it. It looks like a guitar that just needs to be used with no fear of hurting it. It needs gouges, cigarette burns, and whisky stains on it.
