This one is going to HB in a couple of weeks. I just strung this JumboMac up yesterday which has an American Eagle theme. Zircote back and sides with a 1959 Sitka bearclaw top. Macassar Ebony bridge, Zircote book matched headplate, Brazilian RW bridge, Ebony bindings. Double sides with EIR inside, Hollow Back with EIR on the inside. Thanks for looking.

Definitely a top notch guitar Tim! I love the theme guitars. Wish I could make it all the way out to the west coast just to play this guitar. I'm sure its tone is as outstanding as its looks are too!

Thanks for the kind words guys. I need to give some credit to the fine folks at Hibdon Hardwood for this beautiful set of Zircote that I snatched out of the OLF Woodshed.

Andy, are you exhibiting or just enjoying the experience? See you in a couple of weeks.

Just enjoying the experience, Tim. I am looking forward to meeting so many
that I seem to only know through cyberspace!!!!
I don't have any for sale right now anyway. Over the past year or so they
have been just made to order.

Can you share what the hollow back is all about?

Tim,

Nice guitar! How did you get two bridges on it? I've got a ziricote small jumbo headed for Healdsburg. Hope ours are the only two.
