Like Darwin, my birthday is around the corner too. And like Darwin, I got me a new guitar too. I know ... I'm a copy cat But these you don't see that often, and I couldn't resist when it appeared in the Marketplace. The tortoise binding is a story in and by itself you can learn about in the Gallery and this YouTube video.
On top of that, it completes my quartet of Tim Page designed ASAT Rarebirds (L-to-R Blues Boy #9 Contour, ASAT '50 #1, ASAT Z-2 #8, and Trinity #24):
I want to thank Josey Wales, jonc, and Tim Buffalo Brothers (not to forget my steady employment) who were all instrumental (no pun intended) in making this possible

Holy Cannoli! The contrast is stunning. That ASAT 50 still fires me up though.

Glad to see Jon's guitar went to a good home, it will feel at ease amongst your collection Jos. It's a stunner.

Thanks Jamie! It seems to feel right at home. I haven't heard her complain yet. Did hear her wail though
