Uhm...there is some seriously nice looking figure in that wood, looks like quality craftmanship...

 

 

That's the first thing I noticed, as well, is the quality & density of the flame in the neck & the back.

The neck is much darker than the back wood, which would indicate to me that it's been played a lot...which could possibly indicate that it may be a quality instrument.

What I find disturbing is that these people would just throw away a 100+ year old instrument. You'd think they'd at least have the decency to give it to a music school or a local school's music department. Money can really turn some people into self-centered, stupid {censored}s.

 

Anyway, I'm glad it ended up in the hands of someone who'll appreciate it. Even if it's just to sell it to someone who knows it's value.
