Looks great. Too bad I have no money right now for GAS! Ivan Guernsey builds great guitars.

Are you saying he recently put a McIntyre pickup in it? Between the Fishman Nashville and as a second choice the Schertler Basik, I thought that units like the McIntyre and the Fishman "donut" pickup were going the way of the dodo bird.

I have to admit that, seeing the title, I was expecting to see a cross between a cow and an elephant.

Mark, the gentleman I bought it from had Ivan do a complete set-up and install the McIntyre a year and a half ago. I don't know why he chose that pick-up. I have never used it. The guy ended up buying a new Guernsey and a new Harlow and sold this old Guernsey. I am only selling this Jumbo to help fund a new French horn for my son.

Got it Keith.

Ah, the old French horn fund.

For those whom aren't familiar with Guernsey guitars, they have been owned and played by some big dogs, like Mike Auldridge, Jerry Douglas, and Jimmy Heffernan to name a few.

Don't forget Orville Johnson!

Right! Orville as well. He is a big dog for sure.
