Default Emerald April Select X20

I was travelling for work this morning and riding in the passenger seat when the Emerald email came out, so I had time to get to my wallet. If I had been driving, I probably wouldn't have had time to get this on its way to me before someone beat me to it. Apologies if that would have been you.

For some reason this wood looks really good to me. I've wanted a second X20 for a while now, and I guess this is the one. My other one is Ziricote, which is great, but it's very dark (looking). This should be a nice contrast.

Saw the email too this morning - nice series again! Being sidelined from playing at the moment my GAS immunity is pretty strong right now. But I predict these won't last long.

Congratulations - 3 of the 5 have already gone.

Veneers like this could easily make me renounce my CF purist mantle...

Congrats that Bocote is a beautiful veneer and the X20 is an amazing instrument.

Congrats. I was hoping for a nylon in the line up I thought about grabbing but no joy this time around!
