NGD, finally got a Roundup!!!

[wildeman]

Supertone Roundup that is! This thing is from 1935 thereabouts and totally refurbished, I love it.
Now I gotta learn You got a friend in me

It's made by Harmony and may be the first signature model. This thing has had the works, back off, X brace conversion, neck reset, new fretboard and frets, and new tuners, plays and sounds great.

 

[Dano-caster]

Wow... Very nice. Looks like a keeper.

Gene Autry model!
Gene was the highest paid musician in the world for years.
Perfect for cowboy tunes around the campfire.

 

[Pemberton]

Nice! Wow, with the work that was done, I bet it does play nice. I’ve had a few similar old guitars, and they make your hands hurt after about 5 minutes.
—enjoy!

 

[Cryin_Caleb_Aaron]

I wanna hear some Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs!

 

[thunder58]

[TSims1]

[Henry]

That's pretty darn cool! I guess Gretsch was just making cheap Chinese knockoffs in garish colors!

 

[Camaban]

Wow. Just wow. It really should be in a museum. That design is simply the best Cowboy Guitar art that ever existed. Lotta Art Nouveau in that graphic. The headstock graphic/typography could not be better. The lariat perfectly echoes the soundhole and leads the eye down and around. Stencils can be so awesome. If it plays half as good as it looks, wow.

 

[Ricochet]

Wow indeed, that thing is wild!

Didn't know much about him but I'm checking him out and digging it, his early stuff, he's kinda a Jimmie Rodgers impersonator.

Yeah man, it's pretty amazing, it plays great. It is gonna be a main player for me for sure, I'm already looking at pickups for it, my go to has always been a DeArmond but I might go with a K&K on this.

K&K is good unless you play in any kind of loud environments. Then it is merely a feedback machine.

 

[Merc]

That one is the coolest!
