I joined the Navy and it disappeared. I can see much of the conversation is about electrics but this guitar has a very special place in my memory. Very deep resonating bottom end. If you ever get a chance to play a good one, give yourself a treat and play it.

The low E wants to ring out so it needs to be deadened.
