Looks like Ric found some figured wood!

NICE! That looks like the wood on my 1990 620/6 FG. I thought mine was fairly unique.

That's a pretty spectacular 660! New inlays, and they didn't yellow them...which looks much better than too much yellowing. A solid 10.0 in my book!

I like it but I still like my AFG with the yellow binding and green inlays. The FG finish does look dark like the AFG though. Too bad I cannot afford two of almost the same model. My AFG 660 will have to do.

That's lovely! I so want it!

That shore is purdy!

Agree with that. The ambered Fireglo, without the nicotine-teeth inlays and yellow dog-pee binding, is absolutely spot on. What a fantastic looker.

Aaagh, I just called to get a price. $1985. Thats $24. off of list. But it sure is pretty.

I belive list price for a 660/6 is $2,649 which is about 25% off of list.

Thanks Dan. I was going by Mike Parks' 2005 archived pricelist.
Yeah, I feel dumb.

Not a bad price afterall!

These guys gave me a good price on my 381/12 V69 BBR a few months ago as well. Nice folks and shipped it as requested. This one's a beauty. Looks like the figuring on a good Petty model. Some lucky soul will have it soon no doubt.

Best,

Wildwood are tremendous. When I bought my 381 from them in early '05, they were most helpful and personable, with great service. Since them, they've been every bit as nice whenever I've called for a quote.

Nice geetar, and good to see this quality of wood as well...

This one, as they say, is sold!

To ......me! Yay!

I wish I could find myself a lefty 660.
