Nice knives and instruments, folks! Here's my offering.

1968 Gibson Hummingbird with a 1972 Case Half Congress and a Case Teardrop I picked up at the factory store last fall. The color of the Teardrop bone goes with the Hummingbird's sunburst top.

Nice guitar and knife pics, Gary. I was waiting for that Hummingbird to drop down from your avatar and onto the page one of these days.

Nice picture of two treasures!

Gary I have looked at your guitar at least 3 times a day since you posted it. As a die hard Gibson fanboy I really appreciate the craftsmanship that went into that beauty and must admit I'm a bit jealous. With this guitar right now 50 years old I can only imagine the tonal qualities that instrument has developed. Having saw a glimpse of it in your avatar it's nice to finally see the whole guitar. Thanks for posting it.

Thanks for the compliment, Randy. I've had few Gibson's and others over the years but this one was always my favorite, as far as acoustic guitars go. I've had it since '71 or '72. It has a nice big, mellow sound.

Thanks for the thread, Randy. It's a good one. Your Les Paul is as good as it gets and that L4-A looks like it would be a pleasure to play.

Great looking instruments, folks. I haven't played an instrument in 15 years, but there are a few around the house that I'll try to get pictures with.

Brass (and) Horn
