I do not know why you would respond in such an unfriendly manner when in fact it's true if you check the Doc Watson Kickstater web site and look on the right side of the home page for items that have been pledged for

Thank you to Clock and Wolf for your posting

If they can guarantee That I can play half as good as Doc I'm game!

At that price, I would want a photo of him playing it in performance. It is simply a CBG someone gave him recently as a gift. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy.  

The images that Clock and Wolf linked on this thread were of Jason Clonch and Doc. Jason owns CCC Originals in Wilkesboro.
Jason said he built that CBG for Doc at the request of the Wilkesboro Heritage Museum to present to Doc at his induction into the Wilkesboro Hall of Fame. Jason was given the privilege of personally presenting that CBG to Doc backstage where those photos were taken. Jason believes that Doc did play that CBG at family gatherings.

I am not debating the authenticity. Just the amount of provenance. A certificate of authencity is good, but for that value, a picture of him actually playing would bring real wealth. I appreciate you sharing. Thank you.
