Yes this is the very Unique Beauty and a Show-Stopping Look.
And Paul did some out-standing work underneath the load up the knees.
Oh and this baby captures the ears as well as the look Man...AwESome!!!!

| Thanks Ricky for the kind words and great photos-Yes I did add two knee levers with all original stock Marlen parts-much thanks to Chris Lucker-It was alot of work because all the rods underneath had to be removed,cleaned up,and replaced-It cannot be seen clearly from the pics but this guitar does have the clear plexiglass overlays on the fretboards [This message was edited by PAUL WARNIK on 29 July 2005 at 11:51 AM.] |

| A prospective buyer is coming to see the Marlen in person on Monday or Tuesday-I have told him that I would put the sale of this guitar "on hold" to anyone else who is interested until he has checked it out and decided on the guitar-Thanks-PW [This message was edited by PAUL WARNIK on 31 July 2005 at 05:24 AM.] |

| Bump-Marlen still available-guitar in case weighs 65 lbs. Guitar without case is 45 lbs. If you require a lightweight guitar-this one is not for you [This message was edited by PAUL WARNIK on 02 August 2005 at 03:38 PM.] |
