More ripples of waves IMHO.

Here's one more set of photos for you maple sleuths to take a look at.
In the first photo, notice the chevron in the wood grain on the outer back of the guitar. It's pointing down (towards the strap button) and slightly on the treble (cutaway) side.
The second photo is the same position on the inside (you're able to see the inner block reinforcing the strap button location). Also notice the wavy lines outside of the chevron. I suppose it's possible, but it's quite the coincidence to have two chevrons in the wood grain in the same position on the back.
Finally, here's another shot of the bass F hole so that you can see the position of the label along with the bridge and the F-hole

My friend had a late 30s NYer that looked like it was dragged down a gravel road w a rope by a kid on a bike but it didn't have a single crack, just covered w nicks and dings.
Can't see in the photo but I bet the back of the neck on this Excel has a lot of playwear. Cool guitar!
Now back to your regularly scheduled L7CN sale.....
