As a result of some fortunate circumstances, I ended up with this amazing guitar. It's #135.
I wanted to let the pictures do the talking. I think it's one of the closest tops I've seen to the original Nicky.
At 8.1 lbs, it just honks. Very hollow, woody tone. The guitar resonates like a burst.
The "greening" throughout the guitar is insane. The finisher of this guitar was an artist.
Feel very fortunate to have this baby and enjoying every second of it!

"Hidden-flame" view. No double-staining on this beauty. :)

Thanks.
Hmm, weird about the pics. They seem to show up on the thread both on my computer and phone.
I wonder if I screwed something up when inserting images.
Anyone else?

I thought my Nicky was the closest to the original. And until I can see your pics, I'm going to stand by my opinion.

Just kidding of course... :rofl

I'd love to see your new Nicky. Can you repost the pics? I'm sure she's beautiful.

For some reason, I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with the pics. Some can see them and some can't. Can I email them to someone to post for me? I'd really appreciate it.
My direct email is alpsapmaz@hotmail.com if someone doesn't want to publicize their email.
Thanks so much.
I promise you they're pretty close to the real deal. ;) J/K
