A stunning work of art by one of the best Luithers working today
This is Number 1 the first one built,
1 of a kind logo decal. Nitro Lacquer finish. Eastern rock maple with flame veneer, Lollar 8 string Grand Console pickups. Modern vol, vol, tone control layout, all hardware is Machined Aluminium with grover tuners. Handmade wide binding to match the vintage look of the older guitars. Rosewood fretboards. Standard mounting for steel legs. I will include a brass badge Ram sent me but I prefer the vintage style decal.
I worked with this guitar for a few years so she has a ding or three in her but all and all a reall head turner. I will include the legs fair warning not great legs. I found them myself to dave a buck and the are just ok... if you move the guitar up and down alot you may want to invest in a better set.
This guitar sits to much and should be out making music.
Ram Neo Grande w/ gig bag $ 1300 plus shipping - SOLD-

| Wow!! That looks like a great piece of work. When I was 15, many years ago, my parents bought me a Gibson Console Grande and I was so awed by it, I was almost afraid to take it out of the case. And, this guitar really reminds me of that feeling. |

Beautiful! The legs are a real improvement.From the Gibsons,at least. I reread your comments on the legs. Regular pedal steel legs would fit.Fourwould be better than three.
How does the weight compare to the originals. They were quite heavy.

I agree,but 4 are more stable for a heavy thing if you play standing up.

The early Console Grande's had three legs.
Don Helms played a three legged guitar.
So let's stick with tradition.
