Very nice story pomed and thanks for sharing. It's always exciting reading these posts about fans and their instruments and I'm a big Gibson B45 fan.

It's interesting that these guitars were built some with 20 and some with 22 frets.

I have one of each and love the sound of both equally. It's also interesting that the mother of pearl inlay in the headstock is missing from my 20 fret one but the 22 has it included.

Certainly doesn't affect the sound though. They still ring like a symphony.

Cheers, Ron J.
