This new Martin Backpacker guitar case is worth at least ten cents as I use two nickels in the construction.

Our top of the line 30th Anniversary model features the finest Brazilian rosewood. Its innovative revoicing delivers gloriously complex overtones and rich, crisp resonance to complement its lovely, variegated grain. Paired with the mature overtones of an Engelmann spruce top, this stunning guitar will inspire the most discriminating musician.

The marriage of Brazilian rosewood and premium Engelmann spruce yields superb tonal clarity, with deep, rich bass, commanding projection, and wonderfully complex overtones.

Grand Concert

Revoiced and now with a deeper body, the Grand Concert is the quintessential small-bodied guitar. Its comfortable shape delivers clarity and a balanced response for an unforgettable playing experience. Scaled-down proportions make the Grand Concert ideal for fingerstyle playing.

Inlays

 

Pearl & Gold 30th Anniversary

Taylor's prized 30th Anniversary inlay lights the fretboard with mother-of-pearl and 18K gold, while a luminescent inlaid pearl and abalone torch makes a dramatic highlight on the ebony backstrap.

 

Finish

 

Gloss

The finish used to create this guitar’s lustrous gloss top, back, and sides was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultra violet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes. Available in natural finish.

Boiled twin hardshell lobsters, coleslaw, a baked potato and soda for about $30. Boothbay Harbor, ME.

Final shot from my daughter. Sometimes you see something in a shot that you didn't see first time round. Alternative title is "My Dad's a Penguin".

 

She shot the beechnuts in the late evening light whilst I messed with shadows. I pretended to give her a shadow cuddle but when we got back we decided we looked like penguins!

 

Amazing what you find at the top of one's street.

My car made a great hardshell tent :)

Early 70’s Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, although not quite certain of the actual year. Anywhere from 1970’s to 72. More a of a player guitar than a collector.

 

Even though it’s a great sounding guitar the originality of it has been tainted by modifications to the pickups and the tuners, much like many people in the early seventies that bought these guitars, routed out the pickup cavities for bigger humbuckers.

 

The front pickup looks to be a Gibson, followed by a Dimarzio bridge pickup – dual sound or PAF. The Bridge tail piece was also changed, a toggle switch was added at some point but is currently disconnected and it gets it the way of playing so removing it would be a better idea.

 

The Headstock was changed for Grover tuners, a common practice in the seventies, it also comes with a three piece Maple top, Sandwich Body, Hardware has been changed to gold Hardware, Rosewood Fret board with original frets.

 

This Guitar is a great playing Les Paul with a lot of vibe and a reasonable price tag this one is definitely for you!

 

A hardshell case is also included
