But it's natural wood stained, so it's not a different "colour" as such. That's what I'm telling myself anyway...

I'm liking simple single pickup guitars right now. Not that I own one.

I believe this is the replacement term for what we used to refer to as a "Nifty 50".

It is a good thing to tell yourself. :D

I'm in awe of Fano's ability to take what looks like a chunk out of Grandma's sideboard and turn it into a hauntingly incredible guitar.
I've never played a Fano or Novo that isn't still with me.

The carve makes it look like a small guitar sitting on a bigger guitar.

I'm sure you're right, Conway. But I still haven't recovered from the last time you did this to me.
