Well, as is sometimes the case, I was a day late to examine the old J-45.......they sold it yesterday for $5K. Such is life, huh. But they do have this.......

What y'all think? I've got it at the house for awhile to se how I might like it........

I'm guessing they're not giving that one away.

Somehow, I don't see you as an archtop guy, but you do use a lot of chunky chords, so maybe you are.

Is that one of the Master Series New Yorker?
They have carved tops and are hand made in New York.

No sir. It's the NYL02, made in Japan. Very well built and beautiful but, truth told, it's not my cup of tea. Long scale, heavy and not for my style of play. So no, this will go back from whence it came.
