Just a few quick shots before I run her out to the luthier. As usual, I did reduce the file size of these (all are less than 100 Kb). Not sure why they show up so large.... and cropped! (Edit: OK, that was only in preview. The final post is OK.)

What scrape? :tiger:

Wow! Gorgeous! You really scored, Cougar!
Looks like the clear vinyl cover is still on the TRC.

Just curious, but how does that in-case humidifier work?
My NH Guild didn’t have it, so I guess it’s an Oxnard thing?
I use humidifiers that go between and past the strings, into the sound hole. But this thing looks like it sits on top of the strings when the case is closed, is that right?

Thanks, Retro!

Yes, Cordoba Music Group owns another brand called "HumiCase"....

Right - I had to look up how that works, too. :tiger: But basically, you can unscrew the sponge container so you can take the sponge out and wet it. Frankly, my cut-in-half sponges (I usually have three) in a baggie with small holes in it placed under the headstock provides more humidity to the case environment than the smaller surface area sponge in the humicase, but the humicase sponge does have the benefit of location, right there above the soundhole.

I now have both. :cool:

So, um, there's no inside label on these? Just that nice stamping inside on the neck block?

For convenience, they should have the humidity cover on the outside of the case so no reason to open your case when filling.
