"Video is 40 min. long ... what oil was it then ?". Ans: Olive Oil
Video is 40 min. long ... what oil was it then ? what I learned on the internet: Rosewood contains some oil in itself, there is no need to oil rosewood fretboards. thank you for listening....
All I know is I'm driving 50 miles Saturday to pick up a used Henriksen Jazzamp for $250, and if you never hear from me again, you'll know that GAS is real.:nightmare:
I also assume the 5 means the magnet. The Kent Armstrong PAF 5 is smooth and has less background noise (scratches, pick scrapes etc.) I think it is potted. when it is on my jazz amp it is worm and...
Archtop.com had a round hole L7-C on their site some time back. From memory it was a full depth guitar, with the same carved top etc. like the normal L7-C. Only difference was the round soundhole....

Can you describe the sound of that Armstrong compared to a typical PAF style pickup? From the 5 I assume it uses Alnico 5 magnet? Asking for a friend who is a pickup geek....
I see the same thing on both pics. Combined with the reflections seen on the pic I posted, it really does look like a somewhat shallow arched top. Hopefully, someone will have more info.
Planning for hole drilling: Traced outside of shell, inside of kerfing, 1/4” washer for buffer, and 1/8” free handed transition zone for carving ..
With all due respect, Rags, I have to disagree with you - I think it swings like a little kid on a playground in summer. I may not have done it full justice, but here's my after dinner drink of...
