A truly lovely guitar, plays and sounds as good as anything of this type I've owned over the last 50 years. I know I will regret letting it go but I have just too many top guitars, 
came from Peach:

The light varnish finish on these guitars does show wear and tear quickly, as can be seen in the peach video/pic to what it looks like now. 

if you search around the net you can find some of the other numbered ones, but none seem to be currently available.

Dang, that's a lovely thing! Can I ask what the neck profile is like on this puppy?

Awesome, but I‘m pretty sure this is a varnish finish not nitro.

That’s a beauty Paul. 

Looks even better with the poker chip too. 

Good luck with the sale, not that I think you’ll need it. Very tempting.

Alice, hi, I hate describing neck shapes, but here goes. It is definitely more late 50's than 60's, by no means clubby, a nice even C. It isn't as big as my Maybach and is closer to the Huber Dolphin.
 To be honest whatever the shape is, or supposed to be it is just plain great to hold and play. I doubt there will be any horrid surprises for whoever is fortunate enough to buy it.

I bought it blind and have never once regretted doing so.

Great guitars, you know my feelings on these Paul, I cannot recommend them enough. And I love that finish, looks awesome.

Equally, I should add: Paul is a gent to deal with, a gem of the forum.
