i think it's beautiful... bloody shame it isn't left handed seein as how it's at "buy it now" for 1700 CAD on ebay. i'd get it if i had an extra 700.

dadfad, i think this is your call as to whether this acoustic is indeed dominant....

As a southpaw myself I would say that if I had the money I would buy that and make the adjustments...it could be done easily.

I have the mandolin equivalent to that guitar. same woods and resemblance a little older though, 1913. that looks like it would have such an awesome tone, real jangly, very sweet find, go for it!
