Beauty of the Burst (BOTB) Documentation

Ok.. will work on it... pics of control cavity, checklist, headstock, COA... that's it?

For an Aged guitar, any aspects of the aging that
would be considered a Murphy trademark. I always
thought his headstock checking, forearm wear, and
neck wear, were some of his best (read that most authentic)
work.

Frank , did you change the tuners ? The Stanleyburst in BOTB has double ring tuners.

Hi Artie,

Not a BOTB model, but useful for the other information you're collating.

Here's 1 of 25... a Murphy 'ultra-aged' (Yamano) R9 from 2003. s/n: 9 31082,
in the (then) jap-only Sunrise Teaburst. Is this the only one aged just like a Rossington? I've not seen another of these from 2003.

Here are the shots of it when it was for sale in Japan (before the owner before me owned it).

One shot when I bought it:

And a couple of shots since I pimped it up a little with some old parts:

The reds don't photograph too well, I'm planning to get this one photographed properly soon.
