And ultimately, it's just wood, metal, and electrically comprised pots... that we have a tendency to place, at times, WAY too much value in! Still, whomever did this, could have started with a MIM version.... :)

I think from the location of the strap button, we know the who and why.............. Along with the re-shaping of the upper body to allow for better access when playing upside down.
