I love the new Stage Further and Wolf models recently unveiled on this site. I see now that Lieber is building sort of a "Stage" version of his Garcia model. Check it out - it's pretty cool: Lieber LG74 flaxattack Senior Member Username: flaxattack Post Number: 2243 Registered: 4-2004 Posted on Wednesday, April 15, 2009 - 7:52 pm:    hmm- this opens up the old story of who built what when and yadayada personally i like the butternut guitar 57basstra Senior Member Username: 57basstra Post Number: 847 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Thursday, April 16, 2009 - 5:31 am:    Check this one out from the Gruhn website.
