A 000-17 Black Smoke if the wife OK's it. Not likely but giving it a try.

I have 3 guitars for sale.
Next will be amps and electrics.
Saving money for a second bathroom, exterior Paint, kitchen floor, and some dual pane windows.I got 100k in the budget. Hoping to get it done for 80k.

Hoping to get it done for 80k. I enjoyed your house. "Great bones" I'm not sure why you need another bath. Do you always keep the seat open and too dribbling liquid? I guess your wife is pissed off. Darie needs a new bath for her - solo Anyway you sound to be very happy about your new/old house. If you have any money left, you have my number & my address.... or my Zelle application. Just take some of your little quarters and bills and send it to my apartment. Peace |

(All joking aside, I'm sure it's a lovely instrument. Go for it.) |

I’ve played them both, the black & sunburst. Both sounded & felt great. They seemed almost like old guitars to me & I mean that in a positive way. I liked the sunburst but, if buying one, the black appealed to me more. They made me feel Woody Guthrie-like but I had no desire to hop a freight train.
The black one I played did not have a white guard. It was a 00, maybe?

I'm all about 000's. Mine will have the pick guard.

Doc, That looks like a great guitar. I love the modified low oval neck on my Martin 000. I like the simple, unadorned look of the 000-17. If I were aware of a simpler Martin version of the 000-28 that I recently bought, I would have bought it instead.
As to spousal permission, I suggest the alternative of a simpering, groveling forgiveness request after you buy it.

What if Norman Blake wanted to autograph it and all you had was a black sharpie?

Not yet. Probably will do it for my birthday, March 3.
