    That is a great sounding instrument. And quite pretty too. I wish he would actually play some tunes on the thing instead of a few riffs and some chords - he is a heck of a player. I'd like to hear the types of things you could do with those types of tones. I always find myself yelling at the youtube - stop talking about it and play the damn thing. Yes, I already know your mandos have a coil tap....

    From the time I started buying and playing instruments till now and that was quite a few. There's been a few Les Pauls,Strats , Teles and a L7, ES355 along with Martin, Gibson and Guild Acoustics and one A2 mint Gibson Mandolin ,I miss that one most.
    Out of all of them this is the finest instrument I've ever owned. However Ed, your right about MAS. I am now wanting one of his 2 point acoustics
