Welcome Steve.
Yes, a few hundred people do read this forum every month.
I remember your guitar well. Alan & I had quite the time getting the 'SATIN' refinishing just right. At times it was more Satan and less satin! It's the only Time with a satin finish. It was originally built in Waltham. You'd be interested to know that
SollyDad on this forum most likely built your guitar.

The refinish was done at the barn in South Burlington.
The
Fleming 1991 brochure is here.
This picture and the Fleming picture are the ONLY KNOWN PHOTOS of a Time acoustic. Steve, if you are so inclined, please post some pictures. It has been estimated that there are about 60 Time acoustics in the wild. No one has ever sold one so we don't have any idea on the value. I know I would buy one over a post war D-18 any day. Of course, I have a bias!
Casey on this forum may also have an acoustic from his Road Apple days.
So, please post. I would hope it that prompts other owners to post also.
Thanks again Steve,
Chris
