Hey man, that Cameo is Chestnut! Well alrighty then! Kudos to the buyer for making the Cameo a burst instead of boring blonde.

I believe it is chestnut throughout, no burst..

I believe it is chestnut throughout, no burst..

That works too. Just give me any color except green.

Right, it's a monochrome finish - looks like chestnut brown in the photo, but it's actually more like a cognac : )

Nick, your new guitar is magnificent, and I hope that you have many years of enjoyment playing it.
the Campellone guitars remind us of the great instruments of yesteryear, although brand new but
on a par with the best.

Alan,
Thank You Kindly, and the same to you!
It was a pleasure to be amongst the likes of all you good fellows during the past few months while following our guitar builds. I agree with you 100% that what we were looking for was a new highly respectable guitar that would represent the master build quality of yesteryear. That would also inspire us to honor the music we love by playing these archtop guitars in their relationship to the past..
Mission accomplished.. Now back to practice practice practice for the love of jass!!

Nick71,
Congrats - the guitar looks beautiful - do enjoy !

Campellone posts get a huge amount of views around here.
Mark Campellone is obviously an "icon" with us archtop lovers here.
IMO word of mouth is better than a magazine ad.
Obviously his 1 year wait list now holds some truth to that.
I love his "outside the box" guitars like Nick's here and my V1K model.
That blue round hole is pretty cool too. Bravo MC !

Nick,
The guitar looks even better in the flesh, it seems everyone is pleased for you,
Mark's packing looks exemplary., taking care with every detail, I hope that it
plays well, and you have many years of playing it.
My own is en route and has arrived here but it will be with Customs for a number
of days yet, scheduled for delivery 22nd October hopefully , which can't come
soon enough.


Kind regards, Alan
