62burst Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Yes, Dave that's what Gibson would normally call a Radio G, but to Roger's thinking it looked like mahogany, recall this factory fretted (not Hawaiian) mahogany Smeck Radio Grande that showed up at Guernsey's auction (it's no. 410, and just try not to get distracted by the other amazing listings: https://www.guernseys.com/v2/images/Guitars16/docs/Guitar_Auction_eCatalog_Feb27_v2-22_low.pdf Sorry about the derail, Murph. . . try as we might try not to be, some of us are into guitars. And Happy Birthday, 'Murka
