It is tomorrow, at least here on the right coast...just waiting for the place to open.

I'm sure it spent a nice warm 23 hours in the back room awaiting my arrival this morning.

Rayk, been waiting an hour or so, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but here is one to start.

btw, are the pictures too big?

Yup a NH F-512. Honestly with the exception of one minute scratch on treble side lower bout I cannot find a flaw.

There is some dramatic runout though

The case was not the faux alligator and the guitar was missing its end pin. Probably still in the original case somewhere along with the swag generally accompanying a Traditional NH Guild.

Took a few retweaks to keep it in tune for the first five minutes but is holding true now.

Pictures would not come out all that great.

I can tell already why these are considered the king of the hill. Plays very easily, I was doing barre chords 7-9 frets down. Nice slim neck so unlike my JF-30-12.

Those are fibers from the case in the first picture (earlier post) on the top of the nut, not cracks.

Run out is much more apparent in person when looking at treble side. Almost non existent on base angle

Run Out Schmun Out. Who gives a damn. Very luscious.



It's TxBumper and Rayk's fault!!! Heck they've turned me into a snob!

In all honesty, I've learned a ton in the few years I've been here from reading and asking ?'s.

A little knowledge is dangerous!
