Super nice example of an 88! Is that bridge original? If so, another example of using whatever was on hand to complete the guitar. IMHO, those locking bridges were an improvement over the original design. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the compliments, it is a beautiful guitar indeed, that's why I said that sometimes I only stare at it lol, I was very lucky to find it. That is the original bridge, it was meant for a 12 string guitar though, but as you said, Semie was probably using whatever was on hand to complete the guitar

Beautiful guitar indeed, thanx for sharing! Nice pics too!

Gotta love that blue sparkle.

Interesting how it has the solid shafts rather than the split ones?

Welcome, Claudio.

Montreal is our favorite city in Canada. Love the European style building and the foods is just delicious. My wife always talk about going back there.

You've got a beautiful guitar. Thanks for sharing.

Lol, I think they like when I play, although they don't talk to me very often
