warwickhunt Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Nope, the aesthetics are lost on me, that looks U.G.L.Y. Sorry! Though it does explain why it is in pristine condition... the owner was too embarrassed to take it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnacleBob Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Sorry - I will have to join the minority on this one - I think these are gorgeous! Although that heart cutaway (to make u use a stand I think) is just an accident waiting to happen and wont be cheap to repair either.

[/quote] And that from a man who freely admits to once owning a Warwick Dolphin I saw this yesterday and immediately put Mrs JPJ up for sale on a one day auction to fund the purchase. Sadly, the winning bid was only £1.50 and when the winner came to collect her this morning he backed out of the deal. It seems my item description may have been a little misleading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lozbass Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Not to everybody's taste clearly, but certainly to mine - gorgeous! I just know this is going to play beautifully and sound like nothing else on the planet (other high-end Alembics apart) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
