Newton NXII 'Old Sun'

I originally made this classic NXII for myself to better play the solo of a particular Pink Floyd song, and so the guitar quickly picked up the name 'Old Sun'. This guitar has become one of my favourites. The body is made of poplar, was sprayed with a bright orange water-based enamel, and is already beginning to look 'roadworn'.
