Long story on this guitar; Dan Gartland has very graciously donated an original Sunburst Rosac Melobar (like Vintage Guitar Magazine featured last year) to put on the little museum wall.
What was representing the Rosac model before was this black Skreemr which was built for a player wanting the Denny Hemingson with Tim McGraw look, however, after it was clear coated, the Lacquer company recalled the clear...it took nearly 6 months to harden and had little dimples in it. So it went on the wall. Well after 10 years up there is seems okay now and I think somebody would like this guitar. It has the Paul Barth pickup so okay for a music room player but you'd have to change out the pickup to use it on-stage.
I'll attach a video of the finish and sound.
It's also on Reverb but if you are a forumite, I can take Master/Visa, I always upload it here first for the loyal forumites from the past. I'd rather give the commission to the forum.
Black Lacquer
Black painted Brass Nut and Bridge
Paul Barth single Coil pickup
22 7/8ths scale

This is a beautiful guitar at a good price! I paid this for my white Skreemer in mid 90's... I use mine with a BossTone & everyone loves it!
