Listed as 1970's. Isn't the logo wrong for 70's

Mind, it's coming on, hardware all polished & gold plated, 99% of dings & scratches polished out & a re fret with Jim Dunlop 6100 almost completed. Its taught me that a re fret isn't something to undertake lightly![Evil or Very Mad](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_evil.gif)

Re: Rainbow II not cheap!
Really gorgeous speckling on the belly, though. Good to see you're still nibbling away at it, Fish.

Re: Rainbow II not cheap!
Going to town there Mike. I know your a perfectionist though. Surely a simple dressing and recrown ,lol, would have done the trick.
Looking forward to the pics.
And still rising..

Hi Ice
![Cool](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_cool.gif)
other toys to bed for the winter. Just catching up on here, see you haven't been idle

Been working on the Rainbow II for a couple of weeks now, on & off. The top is nicely speckled,
especially after a good flat & polish but not quite to the standard of Damian's Rainbow II, that's a nice guit.
What happened to the X350 MA ''that may have been for sale'' :?: I'd have thought you'd have been around there with your boots blacked

Couldn't get the action down Damian, without 7 to 10 frets sharing the same note on high E & varying around the same frets on the other strings. Truss rod adjustment didn't help. Couldn't work out what was going on so decided to go back to basics & level the board, just finished tidying up the new frets & they're all ringing out now

See the ''Rainbow ll not cheap'' went for £477.60, I think that's a good price with a case

Not really sure Mike. Last we heard from Dap9 the owner was planning on putting on the 'bay, but I have not seen it yet.
It will require quite an involved resto for whomever scores it in any case.
