It's obvious that if a spectacular wood like this were in the lefty GIS it would not last a day and we'd all be jonesing over who pulled the trigger first! C'mon, Carvin, give it a try  |

Note in the GIS : UM - Burled maple top (limited quantities)  |
That is "VERY" sweet!!!
I normally do not like burl.
But, that piece is very nice. |

If they have more of that wood, it'll go fast! And I think it looks GREAT with plain ol' chrome hardware...gold would have looked too over the top (I jsut don't care for most gold hardware, including Carvin's). |

I love the skull under the bridge. The string-through ferrules go right through its eyes, and the nose is just under the ferrules for the D & G strings.
When you see it, you'll see it every time. |
