Re: Bowl back id
I looked through my Martin files, and interestingly I didn't see any of their 'student' models, featuring fewer bowl stave, that also had a scalloped 'skirt' transitioning between bowl staves and top. None of the examples of their 0, 00, 000 models that I have files of, have such deep scalloping.
It would be interesting clue if others have examples with such.
The Martins I have examples of with the deeply scalloped 'skirt' all are their better lines with numerous more bowl staves.
I'm not staking any position based on the files I have, just plugging some information in.
As with Jim and Nick and Mike, when I saw the better image of the headstock, I thought "Martin..."
Mike, did you get the word on the ceramic fret dots from a visit to Nazareth?
That's pretty cool.
