yoslate Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Really nice lumber, Doug! Marvelous figure in that top! Welcome to the fold. How about a little narrative? A little backstory. You have an appreciative audience here, so dish some detail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersteel Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Good choice! Now, what are you getting next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'll post more pictures in the gallery or something...still a bit in shock. Bought it from a friend-of-a-friend here in Portage. The first owner really hardly played it since he got it from the factory in 2002. HRW pickups, Antique Natural with Double VIP set-up. When I first went to look at it a few weeks ago he still had on the original strings from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxdx99 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Nice! That looks like a keeper - cool story, too. Original strings?!?!! Wow - guess it hadn't been played much at all, eh? Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars_hall Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'll post more pictures in the gallery or something...still a bit in shock. Great guitar and glad you got your deal. Be sure to include some diffused natural lighting and angled shots. These bring out the natural beauty of a guitar. Relaxed simple shots without cluttered backgrounds are probably the most appreciated by the troops here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitfiddler Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Great find, Doug! Always wanted to check out that DVIP system. How about a tone report/review after your honeymoon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 I am going to have to read up on all the different settings for the DVIP...not sure about where to have the toggle switches for what kind of sound. That will be part of the honeymoon, dialing in the different tonal possibilities. Definitely planning on the PSP II - should be able to glean some advice from the experts there.

mars_hall Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I really like the contrast of that neck to the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 Creme colored binding, rosewood fretboard, mahogany neck, flamed maple top, back and sides. I believe that is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxdx99 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hey, glad you'll be making it to PSPII. Looking forward to seeing that axe in person - haven't ever seen or heard the DVIP, so that'll be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
