Hang Tag question!

[Just-joshin-ya]

I just picked up a beautiful Al D prism, on the hang tag it says SP order 10. Any ideas 10 top 10 radius???

The 10 probably refers to the grade of the maple top wood.

When the Al Di Meola model launched, it was designated with a "9" top...which was a request Al Di Meola made when designing the guitar. He preferred the guitar with an understated top.

Someone probably special ordered this guitar with a "10" top.

Nigel Tufnel: Look... still has the old tag on, never even played it.
Marty DiBergi: [points his finger] You've never played...?
Nigel Tufnel: Don't touch it!
Marty DiBergi: We'll I wasn't going to touch it, I was just pointing at it.
Nigel Tufnel: Well... don't point! It can't be played.
Marty DiBergi: Don't point, okay. Can I look at it?
Nigel Tufnel: No. no. That's it, you've seen enough of that one.

Yeah, because that prism top is understated.

Excellent!

I just can't hear the words, "hang tag" and NOT think of Spinal Tap. LOL.

Beautiful guitar, by the way! That's a way cool model.

Killer guitar. I'll be honest, that I never liked the looks of the Al D whenever I saw pics online. But the first time I saw one in person, it was gorgeous!

That's gorgeous in the sun. What a looker, hope she sounds as good as she looks. Congrats!
