I am sure someone mentioned looking for one of these, might have been the torch series come to think of it, but thought I would do a heads up anyway, nowt to do with me, new to the forum, so I hope this heads up is in the right section?

    Cheers - already bought it and had it delivered last week! Lovely guitar, very similar to the RO127 I was looking for, but it's extraordinarily orange and I knew that'd be enough to put me off it long term so I returned it. Think I paid £180ish? Lovely guitar though, medium soft-V profile on the neck, and sounded lovely. :)

    *edit* the lacquer sinking on the back is nothing to worry about at all - there's a single-ply of black binding between the two pieces of rosewood, and it's sunken in around it slightly but you'd barely notice it and it's not going to worsen.

    Lol, odd how Orange some of them are, one popped up a while ago, that I stupidly missed , that was perfectly 'natural'.
    They do go  a bit mad on that tinting process sometimes, Blueridge sometimes do as well.

    To me, or....? Nothing in mine, although I did just find another I didn't know I'd had!

  • Yup! The RO127 was pretty tanned too, but this one was literally as orange as the fruit in my basket! Shame really, as it was genuinely lovely otherwise.
