Simple beauty : Avalon pics

Postby chris c » 26 Oct 2006, 11:44

2 details of my Avalon JS signature, nothing fancy (except the abalone fingerpicks on the headstock) but everything is there : quality woods, elegant curves, neat construction...

Someone else got pictures to share ?

*gasp* I remember the day you bought this...it is one of the most beautiful guitars I have ever seen, and I still hold to that.

My Avalon isn't worthy of being photographed... :(

Guess I'll have to wait until I get home to see these pictures, since my browser here at work won't show 'em. I will say that my new L10 just gets sweeter to these ears every time I play it.

I was gonna say that the Eclipse would be more complete with a bearclaw top, but then I clicked on a closeup.... :shock:

Anyway, here's my guitar...When I get enough money together, I'm gonna hop
on over to Newtownards and grab me an Irish Made Avalon lefty...

The Sycamore really does gleam like gold...I really wanted some of this binding for my own guitar build...
but couldn't find it anywhere...

That ugly Adam Ant style saddle is a Saddleboy converter for lefties...

Proof that it's a Silver Series...hoping to upgrade one day...

Looks much like a Gold series... I played some Silvers, and never had the impression I had a "cheap" guitar in my hands. Thanks for sharing the pics.
