    Look what just flew in from California...

    Adirondack top, red maple back, neck, and sides, Flame and figure to die for, Varnish finish...

    And the tone...the tone...pinch me. I'm dreaming.

    Why 2, you might ask?

    #20 was patterned on, and sounds remarkably similar to, a Nugget. Engelmann top, red maple NSB, Varnish finish.

    #22 is Loar all the way.

    Both pretty darn easy on the ears AND the eyes...

    Wow, gorgeous mandos and he still has time to play for the Wizards, Larry sure is a talented guy! Pretty cool that he'd let someone have his #20 too.
