I decided to try and shoot some closeups of my Goodall TROM and here are the results:

Whew, now there's a pretty thing......I think you have a better camera than I do Carl, either that or a steadier hand (or tripod - LOL)    It's not fair to post pics of Goodallls when I am "on the hunt" you know.......beautiful!!!

Todd, yes this is "cruel and unusual punishment", so I thought I would send pics of the Adirondack top (I know you're not big on Adi.) The camera is a Fujifilm 4900 that I about about 5 years ago. Love it, has a closeup feature that works really well.  Only one of the shots was taken with a tripod, the rest were hand held.

Nice looking guitar! I love the wide grain on the adi top.

Thanks Ron,

It's been about 1 year I've had the TROM with the Adirondack top and it really has taken a while for this top to loosen up and come into form.  I was just doing a little A/B between my 5 yr. old Collings and the Goodall and it really has the Collings beat on the volume side.  Yes, the Dread has the boom bass associated with that size, but over volume goes to the Goodall, the OM.  Strange stuff.

Todd,

By that logic, then I don't think anyone could ever post a Goodall picture on this board.  ^_^



Oh, by the way, NewStrings, very nice pics of a gorgeous guitar!

Thanks for the kind words!  I am really happy with my Goodall and very proud of this baby!!

By the way Ron, Paul McCartney is here in PEI today (protesting the seal hunt) and said he would love to play that Larrivee of yours!!!  Except the strings on strung the wrong way!!!!  :GRN>

Well, got to club some more seals,   :wacko:

Yes, I saw Sir Paul on the news tonight waving from his little plane as he was heady out to sea (see). Of course there is little ice this year so they will have to bluster from the air.

If you happen to run into him tell him to drop by. I've got a few Keiths in the basement and I wouldn't mind jamming with him, if he's got the time. I'm working on a couple of numbers that I could really use some help on and I've got another one that's good to go so he could actulaly help me by laying down a harmony vocal track, or two. Might help when it comes time to sell the discs.  :WNK>

That reminds me of something I heard a while back...

Two seals walk into a club...
