Default My 1st photo, maybe

Resurrected from an attic 30 years ago. Underwent a major overhaul. Fully hollow bodied.

It's the first photo you ever took, first photo of a guitar, or the first photo you posted here at AGF?

Good questions, all ... lol .. it is my first posted photo. I just put Tapatalk on my phone and dug these photos out from last winter. Not really good ones at that, but my Mrs had just put this leash, er I mean got me this phone so I thought I'd put it to some use. I'm fond of this old guitar, the picts don't do it justice as that is curled Maple thru and thru. It was initially a single pickup (not a good guitar, really) with a fixed bridge and was not well received. The later dual pickup model gained some popularity, but as a rival model to the Gib ES's did not do well in sales to it was only produced for a few years. I guess they've enjoyed a renaissance with new models, this Fender is from 67. Mine had a sunburst on it but I just couldn't leave it alone. The DeArmonds are vintage, recently rewound at Sonny's Custom in Plano TX. (can't say enough about Sonny, what a pro). Makes for a sweet jazz sound. As it is hollow, it will howl if overamped but that can be mitigated.
