Gold on gold! That's very cool.... and I'm normally not really crazy about Desert Gold--I'll make an exception for that one! Image

Thanks folks.

Melibee, I certainly could use some of your picture-taking creativity. From the pictures you've posted that you've taken of your guitars, I'll bet you could come up with a very exciting/interesting photo for a gold on gold.

Oh yes, of course....

Just bring your lovely guitar next time you come to northern Minnesota, Dr. Bob, and I would be happy to arrange a gold-on-gold photo shoot!

Or come during football season and we could have your gold-on-gold 660 posing with my gold-on-purple 330 as a Minnesota Vikings tribute, LOL!

I suppose I can post this picture again for fun, since the week is right...

At one time we had three of these in our house at the same time--one we bought for a good friend, one I sold to a fellow Forumite, and one I am keeping long term:

That's an amazing looking 660. The figure on the wood is awesome.
