From one small, partial picture it looks like a nice guitar - but there is no information given.

You would find a lot more interest in a guitar enthusiast's forum by giving more information about the guitar.

He has the build detail in another thread.

Here are the full specs fazool, I apologize. Thanks for helping out gstar. If anyone wants a professional opinion of the guitar please email me, this guitar has been played by many pros, both performers and recording musicians and none have been disappointed. Built specifically for the purpose of this raffle this guitar was designed as a generalist instrument and I believe I hit the mark squarely. Thanks for looking. Tim

Thanks to the many here at the AGF that have purchased tickets. As it goes with these things it slows down after the initial burst of sales and I still have 26 tix left. I shot some tests in prep for a real photo shoot, not bad for Iphone macro.

Thanks again!

Let's come together to help those who are not able to help themselves.

Remember, Tim
You know who to contact for tickets in the final hours

Thanks for that Steve. I truly appreciate your words, viewpoint and generosity.

My partner Susan and I have been working with Project Halo since hurricane Katrina. The founder of Project Halo lives a selfless life with the exception of the great reward of saving innocent animals. I numbs my mind knowing the sheer volume of euthanized dogs and cats in the Charlotte metro alone. We have 2 rescued dogs in our home and I simply cannot imagine either of them being killed.

I want everyone to be aware the entire $5000 we hope to raise will go to Halo, nothing is being held back for materials or time.

Sorry for the soapbox, Tim

Friendly bump for the Project Halo hand built guitar raffle. Time is running out to get your tickets.

Thanks for the bump Steve, I still have some tickets as I was holding some and a few of the peeps have either changed their mind or have forgotten or ?, it happens. We will pull the winning ticket on Thursday night at our holiday get together. The AGF has been very good to this fundraiser and I sincerely thank all of you who have generously donated.

Please check out projecthalo.net and on Facebook, they save hundreds of animals every year.

Thanks to all and the AGF.

Email me if you would like to contribute.

Hello all, this will be the closing post for this thread. We drew the winner last night and had a wonderful group of people show up for our annual party. With the guitar at stake about 20 different pro and amateur musicians played her and that is a tremendous learning experience for a builder. We also had 3 recording engineers in attendance and I got a resounding vote attesting to the clarity and dynamics of the guitar.

The winner is a woman from Charlotte who has supported and advocated animal rights for years. I am looking forward to meeting her in person next week after I clean up some small nicks and scratches.

Once again I would like to thank the AGF for about a third of the tickets sold, I met new friends here and learned more about the people behind the posts.

Thanks all and have a great holiday season.

Timo

Dang! I thought I was going to win this one for sure. Congratulations to the winner. Thank you for donating this wonderful guitar and supporting the shelter. Of course the real winners are the animals that will benefit for everyone's generosity. Mery Christmas to all.
