These look even better in person. I saw a righty a few weeks ago on the rack when I took a guitar to the shop.

Yeah, they're so damn nice. And even when I was several years rusty I was able to make one sound reasonably good.

I'll be in CT next weekend. If it's still there I might see if the family can spare me long enough to make a trip down there.

Dangerous, though. $1,400 goes on the credit card so easily, but is such a pain in the ass to get back off! :?

Yeah, it is sweet, for sure. I really like the finish and the body shape. I just don't have any use for a bass with humbuckers or made of Mahogany.
