Sorry if this has been posted before, but I just ran across this one while doing some random surfing:

They are calling this a 1977-ish Irwin/Dolan custom guitar. Actually, they draw you in with the Irwin name, then fess up that he had nothing to do with it. Still a cool guitar.

Craig:

This guitar has previously been discussed on this site. In fact, the owner thought it was an Irwin for about 25 years, as I recall, but wasn't sure. We helped him clear up the mystery. It is the work of Michael Dolan, a former Alembic employee. The previous thread can be found here:
