Default Loar bought a Loar

My dad told me years ago he had relatives from Chicago. Well, that wasn’t enough proof to get a free guitar. Picked this up at a good price off eBay. I’ve been wanting to try a Brownstone for awhile. And I just had to have a guitar with my name on the headstock.

Wow, that's a cool Loar, Loar. How does The Loar sound, Loar? There is a theme here. I think it's LOARRRRRR! Congrats.

Very nice. What are the back and side woods? Is it all solid wood? Can you tell?

I am deeply jealous that you got a guitar with your own name on its headstock. Unfortunately there's no "Hampton" brand of guitars. The best I can do is stay at Hampton Inns when I travel....

Solid Spruce top, Mahogany lament back and sides. Rosewood fret board. Sounds great. Small body full scale.

And the best I can do is eat at McDonalds, but they don't spell it quite right...

Seriously, that's a nice guitar. Enjoy!

I hear there is somebody making instrument cables called "Klotz Cables". Guess I should get one. That's as close as I'm going to come to having my last name on a headstock.
