Post # 730 or Yahoo, I'm getting an acoustic.

Post by wmthor »

Everytime I look at one of Jingle Jangles's projects, I say to myself how can he improve on that. And then, his next project is more stunning than the one before.

I'll be receiving a 730S early next year. Although we haven't finalized the finish just yet, I believe it will be as unique and as stunning as any project that Paul's completed.

Hopefully, I'll be getting one later next year! I'm certain that it'll be one of my favorite guitars.

I have shipped acoustic #1, and #2 will be sent out late next week. #3 and #4 are in the works as I write this. One of these will be Richard's.

Richard and I are getting close on finish color, I think...

Well done, Richard, No doubt it will be a killer guitar! It will be interesting to see (or hear about) the range of finishes that buyers select. Even just the number of 'traditional' styles versus the more 'out there' ones.

Paul, which have you shipped? Aquaglo and Mahoganyburst?

Richard, I don't know what you and Paul have up your sleeves but I am lookin' foward to it!

Congrats, Richard! You are a fortunate forumite, indeed! Image

You will no doubt be very happy with Paul's work.... Of course, I don't have to tell you how happy I am with my Rics by Paul! Image

I should be on the list too...My color is picked out..to me, it will certainly be special...Paul was a major help in picking the finish.

I agree - good going, Richard!

Nice teasing, Richard!

Paul, I'm just sharing another example of your craftsmanship.
