I received by post from Australia, a used Barron River Western cedar and quilted maple tenor. She’s not in pristine shape but well played and loved. Many strum marks and some dings in her cedar top. A gash in her neck was filled. Here’s a recent sound sample a friend did just noodling around:

I believe these are photos from her youthful days:

She’s a joy to play and the tone is absolutely amazing. Also thinner bodied than many tenors and light in weight. She’s got a pickup, and plugged in the sound again is amazing. Taking her in to the luthier this week to check a delaminated spot. Thinking of calling her Matilda.
