pippy Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Some of you might have seen a thread where Flight was working at producing a composite image of his stunning 'Plain'-top G0 to resemble a spread from Yas Iwanade's "The Beauty of the 'Burst" and I got to help. He had his printed and, as a 'Thankyou' also had a print made for me of my own R0 as the subject matter. So just a thread to say "Thanks, Flight! You are a Gentleman!" P.

Tman Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hey, Tman! nice to see you here! P. Thanks Pip. Work's been a bear but I still like to "observe" and occasionally try to contribute something. Great looking guitars and the layout spectacular! I've now come to think of you and LP's as nearly synonymous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
57classic Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Those are two beautiful guitars and the photo layout is top notch. Pippy, I'd put that up against any R9 I've seen. Beautiful slab of mahogany on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Cheers, Tman and 57classic. As far as the back goes; yes, it IS a lovely slab of 'hog. Flowing grain centred perfectly on the body. It doesn't show too clearly in the snap because the rear is actually finished in a darker shade of Cherry-red than is usual for an Historic. Compare it with Simon's G0. I'm embarassed to admit I passed on even playing the guit the first 3 times I visited the shop as the top figure and colour didn't match what I thought I wanted. Fourth Time Lucky. BTW and not that it matters any, but It's an R0......................................... P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, 57classic. My mistake. I really should have known better. I do know better, in fact........ And, of course, thanks for the kind words. P.
