Rare Ervin Somogyi Clasical guitar on eBay at the moment...

I thought that I would post this for interest sake as they dont come up very often. I thought that bridge design is very interesting with its beam like design. It is a very distinctive instrument. There are high res pics in the listing that give one a good look at the details of ES's work from nearly 30 years ago.

Good value, Just a bit less dollars than the book!

Now, now, Paul. Be nice.

Anyone finding themselves tempted by the odd vendor offering stump or flatsawn BRW on Ebay from time to time that will ship to AU should take note of the many cracks that have opened up in the back of that guitar over the years. Its a clear indication of why nobody in the world would even think about using the stuff until there was nothing else left in the cupboard.

Bummer. But hey, that's why it is available at half the price.

At least the guitar is nicer than the carpet...
