      Yeah, but I heard Dave stripped it, stuffed the neck pickup hole with bondo, peeled the fretboard off and replaced it with a maple board, put a new headstock on it, and then painted the bastard pink...

      ...and it still looks wonderful.

      J/K!

            Congratulations, what a fantasic looking Archtop....worth every penny (or Cent in the States!!).
            I thought that the comment that you had been "ripped off" was a little harsh. Granted, if you had paid more than the retail price but any less, it's a bonus. If it plays half as good as it looks, it's going to be a killer guitar.

                  thanks, guys.

                  she plays like a dream, and has huge tone - the mohogany really makes a remarkable difference.

                              You have great manual vibrato, and with a guitar that doesn't have a trem, that shows really good technique. I also dig your band's raw edge sound with only one guitar. When you solo it wasn't empty, it didn't "fall apart" like many one guitar bands do. Killer axe too.
                              "Got a crazy feeling I don't understand,
                              Gotta get away from here.
                              Feelin' like I shoulda kept my feet on the ground
                              Waitin' for the sun to appear..."
