That's really pretty.

Peter, great looking instrument and I really like the look of the pickguard. I would buy as is if I did not have one inbound as we speak. Great job. You make great looking and sounding instruments.

I have heard clips of Gil Model 1s and even got to play the original prototype a few years ago, and thought they were nice but nothing to get too excited about, until this video. Probably a good player with an outstanding instrument, together with a high quality recording setup. .

Which clip did you find that "got you"?

[Jim Garber]

Could be this one. He is an amazing player:

That is the one. Now if I could play like that I could do a comparison. Ha!
