Not wanting to be the first one to own a P/P

I waited for thirty years. Just to make sure all the bugs were out Laughing

This is another Albert Johnson creation. Albert is in Tallahassee FLA. A magician and a Master craftsman. This is an 80 8/7. And it's a keeper!! Very Happy
The second pict is Albert.

Thanks Ron.

No the levers are polished aluminum. One side is rough sanded to give a textured look. One of Alberts
touches.

What a great looking p/p. I have a 68 and a 76 D-10 that Albert did and they are gorgeous. You are right about his being a master. He is also one of the nicest, most gentle people I have ever met. I have one more guitar for him to do. It is a D-10 Black Rock Emmons and may be the only one in existance.
Have a good one and say hello to all the Florida Club pickers for me. I miss those days...

I'll jump in a give a kudo to Albert Johnson.. He setup a PP for me this past Feb and it is simply perfect. He's done a couple PPs for some of the Alabama folks and we sure are blessed to have him in our neck of the woods down here..

Here's a picture of mine that Albert setup for me..
