Windstring Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Thanks, guys! I am beside myself with anticipation! For those not familiar, here are some pics! Definitely a classy "Tuxedo" guitar! Well done! You'll need to wear shades and a beret!

H Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Very pretty Just one thing: I can't imagine that through a Vox AC50 You'll have to get yourself a nice jazz amp too
Kuz Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Barry I was SO close to buying that guitar before I got "Amber" (yea, I guess I have to post a pic). I really changed my mind several times and almost bought your guitar. Now I am glad I didn't, because a HOC member got a cool 575 as well!!! CONGRATS!!!!! pic of "Amber"
barrymclark Posted July 13, 2010 Author Posted July 13, 2010 Nice one, Kuz! H, I know it. But... I think I have blown my money for a bit. haha. Believe it or not, that Vox has a WONDERFUL clean tone.
H Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Believe it or not, that Vox has a WONDERFUL clean tone. I love Vox tube amps for precisely that reason But I think you need a Polytone now Break it to your lady wife gently
FredZepp Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Ha... You keep testing the water with your big toe... and then.. DIVE right in. Why go half way , right? Well , that one is a stunner for sure and will attract a crowd where ever she goes. You are going to be very , very happy with THAT ONE, No doubt about it. Congrats.

schundog Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 I've never seen any guitar with a natural top and black sides and back, and I wouldn't have thought I would like it, but whoa, baby, that is beautiful!! I love the trans black; very classy. Congratulations!

I love the trans black; very classy. Congratulations! It would have never occurred to me either! Just something! Thanks!
barrymclark Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 Thanks, Yoslate! It'll be here tomorrow. It left Jacksonville FL and is in transit to Atlanta!
barrymclark Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 Left for Atlanta at about 10:00 am. Jacksonville is about 5 hours from Atlanta. Should be about 3 hours away from being in the same city!
barrymclark Posted July 16, 2010 Author Posted July 16, 2010 ... But I think you need a Polytone now ... I have tried twice now to get a Polytone! haha. I think life is telling me not to! haha. The weight of the Vox is murder on my arthritic knees. I moved it all of 10 feet last night and I woke up with mannequin legs. Took 10 minutes to loosen them up. I fear the Vox's days are numbered. Know anyone that wants to trade a Cube 80X for a Vox AC50 CP2.... that has a good pair of knees? haha. I am actually mostly serious about that.... I am honestly really look at that as the replacement. Love the sound of these things. Bummer losing the other 12" but losing 2/3 the weight is perfect.
mark555 Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 Barry, my congratulations to you on your choice of what is no doubt an exceptional guitar, it's great that you have finally been able to get what you have wanted for so long. Enjoy, and a big thumbs up!
