Very nice looking top.  I don't think it's Maple.  The listing says Flamed Walnut.

Someone should inform him the lemon oil is for the neck.

This is such a good price, and - since it's in EU - I wouldn't have to pay duties/taxes... And I have NO MONEY at the moment!!! Even if I sold my Nexus I wouldn't be able to save up... AAAAARGH!!!!!

It doesn't look like a Pau ferro fingerboard either. I'd say more likely to be a figured ebony as that was standard on the epic.

looks like John 'Whitecloud' might be showing interest in this aswell as Georgieboy. Hope one of them gets it - that'd keep it in Scotland at least.

No it wasn't me.
I had a limit of ?800--no more.
Hope it's still in the country somewhere.
