New snow boots for the "Office" and the Golf.
BFG KO3s for the "Office" and Faulken Aklimate for the Golf. I just have to get them mounted, balanced and installed before the first snow. The chores never end, do they?

Let us know how you like the KO3s. I’ve got Trail Terrains on the Mom Mobile and KM3s on the old one. Have been considering the KO3s.

I'm replacing KO2s so I'm not expecting a huge difference. I've been more than happy with the KO2s. All the comparisons I've seen between KO2s and KO3s have put the KO3s on top so I'll see what happens. I'll try to remember to post my thoughts once I have formed an opinion.

That is a Vintage Jumbo model. Mahogany back and sides Sitka spruce top. What is most incredible to me is it is so LIGHT. I mean it weighs nothing. Not sure how they did that unless the delta between it and all my other acoustics is it doesn't have a pickup installed.

And yes be careful. This is the low end of the SCGC family.

I've got a mahogany back and sides an Sitka spruce top guitar that is really light too. Very strong and sound. It's really vintage. I bought it in the 1960s and it was built in '53. I've been loving it for almost 60 years!

Enjoy your new guitar.

Thank you!
The current finish is very unique! In that with certain lighting, they appear almost light greyish but also light bronze. With the spoke fronts brushed, it has lots of depth and dimension. Truly a custom finish that I selected and love!
