New old Thompson guitar day
Just added this 2015 Bob Thompson dread (I’ve been trying to thin the herd this year but oops.) Just love this guitar! Baked adi/mahogany, very light, dry and resonant. Has a big bark. 1 3/4” nut and a slim C shaped neck, low action, 10/10 playability for me. Exemplary service as usual from Karl at CME. There aren’t a lot of posts about Bob Thompson guitars on the forum. Anyone else play one?

Congrats. Bob and Larry make very good guitars.
Here's mine I picked up last year:  Lutz top over aged mahogany. Plays great and sounds lush. Enjoy your new guitar. D

I'm deep into the honeymoon period with this guitar. My easiest player ever and it comes with real character if that makes sense. It seems alive - and old.

Love Bob Thompson's guitars. I had a blackwood/adi, but had 1 13/16" nut, just a little too wide for my hands, sold it to another AGFer when he came to my house to look at a different guitar I had, he bought it on the spot. I took those funds and bought another blackwood but had a lutz top, love the sound of a lutz top, loud and warm. Bob and Larry make some great guitars. Enjoy!
