This is a good example for what a closer look is worth...I wonder how many OBGs are sold as veneer but have a solid top.But I think Mark is checking every new guitar and knows better how rare they are ?

ObG LP with fret binding and solid flametop=very very rare
ObG LP solid flametop no fret binding= rare

I should have followed my gas attack yesterday when I saw the original hardcase.Fast enough and I would own now the guitar with case for 1 grand :evil: But I know myself good enough to know I would have sold the guitar immediately without a closer look into the cavity :lol:

They put a lot of different design elements into that guitar, Mark. Not going to have to worry about finding another quite like it.

Ladys and gents, I just opened it for you and it is a real flame top. Pics in a few minutes... Which means price is going up. Sorry and tnx to all of you who PMed me to check it. I was too lazy to do that because I love the sound so never intended to change PUs, so she was never opened. But I assumed it could be a real flame, since it has subtle flame and not that usual veneer look...

pics

very, very nice.

Yes, no question that the top is solid. And amazing.

Never should have let it go, somebody got lucky!

You didn't know it's solid ?

Allright, I am still waiting for the payment and if it is not made by the end of the day, the guitar is back in for sale.
I am sorry to "you know who" but I gave you all the time needed so...

P.S.: for all the additional info or anything send me a PM, because I am not that much on the forums to check all the new posts.
