[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 9475543, member: 84"]Today was 1/2 price day at the local thrift I go to every day, but today I got there even earlier than usual before it's 9am opening- I arrived at 6:15aml and there was still 3 people in front of me! I came earlier than usual because I've been watching this guitar for the last 3-4 days; it's a vintage Favilla F5 that was priced at $199, but this morning I grabbed it for $99!

After looking it up on eBay & seeing only 1 has sold I gave to the dejected looking guy who I'd beaten to it - turned his frown upside down!). 2 questions - the Favilli's serial number is 101484; does anyone know what year that makes it? More importantly, it has a small hole at the bottom center - is that normal? PS - I think it has it's original case! Thanks for any help - hope you like this pics of this beautiful guitar!
