Welcome to the forum 69lespaul.  So, do you have a gold top?

Cherry Burst Deluxe with Mini buckers. And I'll confess, it's actually a 78. I bought it in 1980, the previous owner said it was a 69.
I had to wait for the internet to be invented so i could research it. LOL But the handle 69Lespaul sounds better than 78 lespaul, and I have been using it since forever.

I purchased a Grand Auditorium 114ceV7. I would have liked to have purchased one of the upper end models but so happy to have my first one on it's way. It will arrive the Friday!

I'm confused on the V7 too. Is it layered walnut back and sides?

Yes Layered walnut!!!  LOLOL...my bad, the V7 is a Sweetwater sku designation. I copied and pasted that by mistake. 114ce is the correct model. Layered walnut back and sides. Sitka top.

I certainly will. I have the ones that Sweetwater sent me, but they are crappy. I'll take some this weekend and post them!
