It’s nice to see them again! I’m glad that they are in the best home possible for them.

Best home for them, Yes, but I would sure love to have them here  ;)

Neat video Gil, never knew of the 25-G prototype...

Also wish the chimney lug had gone onto the Deluxe models I have... Any idea why the bases are so large on the production model Deluxes?


I believe that the large wood bases were the request of the general sales manager at the time, John Foskett.

Here are 3 one off Jensen Deluxe Prototypes.
They were built by our own Steamer J and were the prototypes for the Deluxe models Jensen sold in 90's and the early part of the new millennium.  The 20G and 55G Deluxe editions became a reality in very limited production. The 25G Deluxe never reached production beyond the prototype seen in this video.

Enjoy!

Gil
