Just curious, was this the one hanging in The Folklore Centre in Halifax?

Do any of you guys have the original manual that came with these? I don't think I have one scanned (and mine didn't have it when I bought it). And how about schematics? I'm sure it's fairly straight-forward but I like to have this kind of stuff stored on my computer in case I ever have problems and want to keep everything straight by the book...

Haha - I was wondering if you were the same Taylorplayer from Locals.  Small internet.

In any case, that guitar was gorgeous.  I made a couple of lowball offers, but Mr. Dorwood was having none of it.  I'm curious if it ever actually sold, or if it went back into his private stash.
