Very nice, one has to wonder where all of these older instruments are :)

Thanks Adriaan - I never knew.  Wonder what wood that is on his 6 string - it looks beautiful.

I was wondering that too. May be the way the light is coming from, but it kinda' looks like a zebrawood top.


~Gregory (who thinks those are some wicked clogs, but thinks you'd need the rest of Donovan's ensemble to use them...)

I'm pretty sure both of Donovan's are Zebrawood, and as far as I know, he still has them both (at least he did a couple years ago - I should check in with him again!). The photo looks enhanced, but it's a really cool shot. I've never seen it before.
