nosbig Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hmmm not sure but dam' date=' what happened to the guitar in your avatar???[/quote']Hi Dave, Its a `71 Gold top and was found in a wet case in a basement of a house that was wiped out by hurricane Katrina!! It was there for approx 3 months. The neck was off and the maple cap was distorted and lifting but after months of work I got it back together and it plays and sounds awsome!! I gig it every week and it does get a few comments when people see it I can tell you!!! If you wanna see the details of how I done it you can go to my website www.tjcguitars.com.
