Dad! It hurts my eyes!

Post by Geeze »

Procrastination coupled with WTF whimsy compelled me to 'finish' this cherry cab with fabric that insisted I take it home. I'm tempted to bring it to the booth at the Dallas guitar show. It may scare off anyone who can't remember the 60's.

Its Peruvian walnut. It has nice figure but with an oil finish you need a really bright light to see it.
