What a beautiful guitar!  
 
By the way... do you have a special design for well endowed men as well?

Bill, togo, that (endowment) must have been a popular option in April, 1955!!!  It's always interesting to see what club members look like.  Attorney, leftie, deadhead.  Not sure what to expect.  You look like you're holding up better than I am for our age.

Hmmmm... I suppose that a Texan, with an excessive endowment and an excessive stomach would find the Martin Backpacker to be the perfect instrument.

Now I feel guilty. I didn't want you to edit the post... just include a picture with the actual intended customer playing it .

Cool!  What is the scale length on that?

Title: INTRODUCING LITTLE DARLIN
Post by: lbpesq on August 24, 2005, 07:28:20 PM

I believe it is a standard Gibson scale:  24.75  It plays a lot bigger than it looks.

Any idea how much this would cost --as pictured? ALSO, anyone know the weight on it?

Post by: lbpesq on August 26, 2005, 11:27:09 AM

Are you talking about the guitar or me?  If me, you'll have to speak to my wife about cost  (she might let me go cheap - LOL).  If your asking about my weight, the answer is classified, but it is 20 lbs less than 5 weeks ago.

Yeah, I thought I recognized the patterrn. Nothing I like more than going to a business meeting with some conservative/ corporate slug types and putting my Garcia tie. I feel like an undercover deviant with the tie smiling right in their stiff, collared faces!

I don't wear a suit or a tie to those types meetings. Just my good old jeans and a button up shirt. However I would much rather wear a tie-dye Alembic shirt if I could get one. :-)
