is that neck really that skinny up by the money frets, or is it just an optical illusion created by the weird shape?

If my Mom (or Dad) had a nice rack of guitars like that at home, I may have never moved out either...............  ;)

I know what you're thinking......

"Look at the rack on that one!!"  :-*

This isn't really a music video. It's an informational video using random photos of guitars he found on the web, including a photo of my basses &  photos from Rob's book.

On a separtate note, it looks like a 20/20 is for sale in Australia. Other than changed knobs, it looks to be original............

Ten seconds in and I knew it was a Trogly video and hit the stop button. He's a guy who uses 100 words where one will do. Even if he got to the point quickly, his voice is one of the most annoying on YT.

Assuming that 20/20 in Australia is priced in AUD it would be less than $900 USD.

Sounds a little like Emo Phillips too.

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

I like the effort the dude in Australia put into his homemade hard-shell case. I just made an insert to fit into a Chinese rectangular case.

What's with the signature by the logo on the horn?

It looks like the gold of the print oxidised a bit

Noooo, it has a Ned Steinberger signature.  Unsure whether this is normal.
