I’m not a huge fan of acrylic, but I did really like the uniqueness of this 53 and the guitar shield. This is “Eggs & Hot Sauce” acrylic.

Buckibbq,
Really nifty original design by GEC on that one and good job on that photo, too. Gotta love the guitar shield and name.

I always thought the Northwood's Presidential was on the GEC #98 frame till later educated. Never the less a slim package that carries very well in the pocket.

Thanks, OR-19...ya just can’t have eggs without a little dab of hot sauce to get the blood pumping!

Tim that red Pres is looking mighty fine, glad it’s seeing some pocket time. I’m threatening that blue one with the same course of action!

That blue is amazing as I have said elsewhere I believe. It definitely deserves some pocket time ::tu::
