Really expensive tort

So I saw some tort guard on ebay that went for like 100 bucks+. Like what's the premium you're paying for here? It's not NOS obviously since it's made just for the Peter Buck

model

^^^ Good read.

Doesn't that depend on how much jail time you wanna serve?

Also, this just was listed:

Those avantguards look pretty slick. They look to be cheaper on their site though (unless they are only the out of stock ones).

What color Jag do you have? Great to see another Rowland fan here.

His brother Harry recently did a rad little book of photos of Rowland's Jag.

What color do you think?

That's a cool book! Dig the old school telephone wire

Not sure this necessarily fits, but check the tort binding:

Very cool, but very different guitar. Barks a bit like a resonator or even a banjo. Chords die quickly, with single notes hanging longer. Weird and kind of tough to deal with, but meeting it where it is it’s a pretty compelling beast. Glad it’s not my only acoustic, but glad I have it.

If you like Spitfire but don't like the godbothering that goes with it
