That's an impressive site, the sort of thing Matchroom should be doing. Thanks!

It’s amazing what a couple motivated people and Claude can accomplish nowadays. Too bad incumbents like Matchroom don’t take notice, or don’t care.

Looks basically original to me.

Some Birdseye in the maple is just dumb luck, like some have some tiger striping. It's not an outstanding piece of Birdseye.

The shaft splices were common.

Joint looks OEM to I didn't realize the spliced shafts were common but nice to know. It was the only thing my grandpa kept from that time in his life so it was special at least to him.

Thank you for response

I have a handful of David Howards, but that isn't quite the same thing...

Yes he now lowered the price on e bay to $4500 buy it now with no offers being accepted - just a buy it now at 4500 - 13% goes to e bay.

As I said earlier- taking offers on this site would make so much more sense IMO with $4500 as his starting point - doubt that he gets the 4500buy it now on e bay - when you can’t make offers then you just wait out the seller until
They start price dropping.
