    Why thanks Shane, just the reason I go to garage sales and always have an eye out for oddites, there's just no way to make up some of natures defects.

    Just to mention another thing about this guitar all the hard woods, which are thick and make it heavy I think are important in making for a deep tone and the sustain. When I get my videos on here I'll be sure to do a song on this guitar.

    Low C is very warm sounding and very good sustain, you just need the right set up and big strings.

    That is cool looking! I bet it sounds nice in a low c tuning!

    Open C for me is just like open D or E it's just that this monster will hold the low tension tuning, chording and struming are great. I'm a rythmic and percussive player, low Delta blues on this is wicked. It's just alittle hard to find the 6th 60ga string.

    Interesting instrument; thought it was a bass at first. What is low C tuning? Is it suitable for rhythm playing (chording and strumming)?
