Just got the one on the left. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v39/heartfielder/Artists003.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v39/heartfielder/Artists004.jpg Dave_g Username: Dave_g Registered: 01-2002 Posted on Saturday, February 03, 2007 - 6:12 pm:    Heart...the 2617 is a re finish ...no ? I have a brown and and a brown burst, both are different color than that one.... Heartfielder Username: Heartfielder Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Sunday, February 04, 2007 - 12:32 am:    Actually the previous owner told me he sanded off the original finish. I can only assume it was Violin Brown. Heartfielder Username: Heartfielder Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Friday, February 16, 2007 - 4:15 pm:    I can't believe there's no interest in these guitars. Maybe it's my after shave ?!? Go figure ... The one on the left may be the best guitar I've ever played !!!

I love each and everyone. They are steadily gaining recognition. There is plenty of interest in these guitars, especially here!!! All of us know when one is on the chopping block! Peace!

The grain is more prominent with that finish.. Jimmys Username: Jimmys Registered: 5-2003 Posted on Saturday, February 17, 2007 - 7:11 am:    I am also into the Artists more than any other guitar and have a few, but no AR500 unfortunately. I am wondering how long it will take for the 70's/80's ones to be worth more than a few grand (US) for the very best ones in general? In the meantime, there are still some good deals on these guitars if you spend the time looking and are patient. Heartfielder Username: Heartfielder Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Saturday, February 17, 2007 - 8:25 pm:    Thanks for the props guys ... these guitars are excellent. I own 45 or so guitars and the AR500 is the one I reach for most !!!
