Now I`ve found out how to post pictures there`s no stopping me. I bought this guitar a week before I last got made redundant , much to my wife`s dismay. I`d been looking at some D-15s and this one caught my eye on ebay. It turns out that the guy I bought it off lived fairly local and knew my wife, occasionally working on her ward at her hospital .

Anyone else like the smaller type of acoustic ?

Nice, Geraint! What model is that? OOO? OM? Rosewood or mahogany? I borrowed an OM28V from a friend when I was visiting the UK last year and that's probably the nicest guitar I've spent any time with. Giving it back was difficult.

It`s a OOO Rosewood Mark , its got a pretty interesting grain pattern on the top I`m not sure if you`d call it a bear claw although the photo does`nt show it very well . I think Martin stopped making them a few years back and I got it for virtually half price . Its a great guitar that does`nt keep the whole house up at night .
