Things have been hectic of late, but managed to take some quick phone pics outside today.
What color is Miss Pernie?

What an amazing top!
And the new to me guitar arriving tomorrow! The flametop River Blue sister to Tosca's quilt from Brian's WL run earlier this year. I've been strengthening my core/back this year plus dropped a lot of weight so I thought I'd try a SC 594 again. This one came up recently used with a rosewood neck and I couldn't resist! Fingers crossed on my back - I already know this guitar will be killer. Original owner (very nice guy) swapped the uncovered bridge 59/09 with a covered one - just the way I like it.
Tosca, what color is Miss Cleo? I've been thinking of a build along those lines for a while now, still debating on what color over a quilt top. Grazie!
Holly Molly!!!
OH Lord! That aquamarine color is so perfect on this gorgeous one piece top

Thank you!What a specimen, my GAS meter has rocketed sky high
Sadly not enough funds yet.
Sorry to hear that Paul, it's a real bummer but health has the priority, I hope you feel much better soon to enjoy your DC 594 and the rest of your awesome stable.Thank you!
Unfortunately it's heartbreak again! I absolutely love this SC594 that came today, a real tone monster and really does have that extra 5% that Pete says it does even versus my DC594 in SC thickness. Neck is perfect on this and the action was dialed in beautifully! Loved it with the hotter 59/09 bridge pickup. But I need to return this one...
At 9lbs, 2 oz with the SC body shape, the weight distribution exacerbated my herniated disc again after playing it for an hour tonight both standing and sitting. My DC guitars do not have the same effect on me (my TOL is the exact same weight!). Guess I have to admit defeat and embrace the fact that I can no longer play 9lb SC guitars anymore. My first guitar was a 10lb LP studio some 26 years ago. Sigh! The Bahama Mama SCT I sold earlier this year was Obeche wood and thinner so it weighed a little over 7lbs, but sonically didn't have that 'oomph' you'd expect from a SC. So, clearly the thicker body and heavier weight don't work for me.
Thanks - appreciate the kind words and positive mojo!Sorry to hear that Paul, it's a real bummer but health has the priority, I hope you feel much better soon to enjoy your DC 594 and the rest of your awesome stable.
Just in case someone wants to borrow the colour, its official designation is grass stained blue jean.OH Lord! That aquamarine color is so perfect on this gorgeous one piece top
