fyi: artie has a used fillmore model II for a good price and fillmore is making new ones, both like the original and like johnny's. there's a link in the "fillmores at front porch" thread to the fillmore website (on the most recent page). this sheena model looks rad though! wouldn't mind getting one.

I have some pics i saved from a original red ventures 2 that sold on ebay some time ago, and man o man, bob's version is spot on.
would be cool to see a tremolo version too, but i'm sure the stopbar version he came up with works better.

I agree - the new Sheena model is amazing. And as far as a vibrato system for this guitar goes, Bob told me that Hallmark will have the direct vibrato available sometime next year to purchase seperately.

Beautiful guitar. Best of fortune in selling a gob of them.

Oy, Mel, so do you want that finish for the next Meshugga Beach Party CD which will feature, "Sunrise, Sunset, Sunburst"?

A ballad-ish peice like that could be fine.

Could you please send me pictures of it? I did see it on eBay but I'd like to see the pictures again. ;)
