15 years after getting my Martin parlour, which is in the first post of this thread, and 3 years after saying in that post I’d get it restored, I finally did and just got it back The out of place full size bridge was replaced with the proper smaller pyramid style - it’s a bit scarred now because of that, but it is over 180 years old so I can live with that! To make it look less scarred would have compromised the original finish, rosette and vibe. It’s also got new tuners, cracks were fixed, and the back was French polished. Feel blessed to be a custodian of this one. Would love to know it’s stories.

I was thinking more like a leather pickguard but who knows where this build might take me??…….

Most valve micro-amps provide means of connecting to a speaker cab, so as not to have to rely on the micro-speaker built-in for the tone. Just sayin'.
