Hi Doug,

This one's a different story - got details for you!

top: Purpleheart
back: Purpleheart
neck: Maple Purpleheart and Beech
fingerboard: Padouk (Vermilion)
inlays: Mother of Pearl
originally made for: not recorded
birthday: October 8, 1976

There's one registered owner in 1985 who said they bought it secondhand. They were in Virginia.

Then I have a note from 1991 when you picked up the guitar.
