Dave F Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Picked up a custom L00 (Georgia Peach Tribute to Duane Allman) made by local luthier Jamonn Zeiler that I ordered earlier this year. Real nice. #9 of 24. Here's some photos. Red Spruce top with Red Spruce bracing and hide glue. I requested clear pick guard. Honduras Mahogany back and sides Maple 3 piece neck. Carved to match my L5 Ebony fret board and bridge. I requested the fret board be plain. Bone nut and saddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly campbell Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Very Nice Congratulations.. it is beautiful. Guess I will not be a one is enough either but I like being able to choose what I want to play on any given day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozz Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 That's a beautiful guitar, Dave. The Mahogany / Red Spruce combo is perfect for a 00. It really brings out that articulate, woody, vintage vibe. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62burst Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Very nice, Dave. Nice to have one built that has a neck profile of one (the L-5) that you're comfortable with, and good of you to support a local luthier. Some clean lines out front. Looks like it'll make a great guitar for pickin' some country blues. Only one way we'll find out ; ) . Happy NGD- we know what you'll be doing this weekend.

OldCowboy Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Looks great, I have utterly failed the "Only One" club. The 'only one' club used to be the province of those of us trying to generate our income from the 'one and only' and you belonged because you were lucky to have just one and not because you were enchanted with the idea. I admire today's current members who fall into that circumstance, but celebrating the notion strikes me as nothing more than an affectation.

OldCowboy Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 In this sense of the word- kind of like reverse snobbery? Very nice interpretation. If you're content with only one, that's perfectly fine. Implying that your self-limitation to just a single instrument somehow makes you a more noble/realistic/viable person and/or musician sends a contrived (affected) and snobbish message.

58 Relic Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Really Really nice looking and no doubt sounding guitar , looks a fingerpickers dream . One thing apart from the flawless finish I did notice was the great neat way that the strings are fitted at the tuning posts makes the headstock look really sleek , well done and enjoys hours of pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
