CTGull,

Congratulations on the new guitar.
That was one hell of a round trip, bet it's in great condition, the original owner must have really looked after it, or under the bed and never used. 😀

Man! The trouble I'd get into if I had 14 hours to kill! He he!

Pictures. Hope it was good driving weather in your parts.

Yes. A very early Red label. I'll probably be writing something up about I think the earliest Red labels were built a bit heavier and don't sound as good.

No pictures yet. Wasn't home much of Sunday. Worked on a guitar for someone else, then went on another road trip. Drive 1.5 hours each way for a combo 1976 Craftsman 6" x 36" belt sander & 9" disc sander, for $50. A 5 hour trip, after we spent a while talking to the people and stopped to eat. The machine is another project, and unfortunately it's not the original or proper size & speed motor.

Did about 1000 miles of driving this weekend. The weather was about 50 on Saturday and about 40 yesterday. Some rain & sun, but no snow!! YET!!

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), it was all for work.
