Up for grabs today is a high figure set of Myrtle. This is a great set with lots of intermixed dark and light areas, extreme flame, and extra EXTRA wide sides. This set is large enough for a dreadnaught. It has a few very small worm holes on the interior side. The show face is clean. Most of the holes will sand out when you thickness the back. This is a great set and will build a beautiful guitar.

Retail value is $185. Bidding will go until tomorrow at noon, but if someone wants to claim it for $175 before then we will also throw in domestic shipping for FREE.

As always, thanks for your support and happy hunting. :)


(Lance will change out the banner a bit later....)

It is just the picture. The one in the auction looks about like yours until the Naptha hits it. Then the colors really pop. That and I had to play with the lighting in the shop to cut down on the glare.
