    If you want to see something totally different from Marty, check out his "Leviathan" GBOM/Bouzouki concept over in the Jacobson social group. That thing is gonna be really special. Not speaking for Marty, but I believe he has his "Nautilus" mando design to the point where he can readily fine-tune it to specific tones and styles. He just knows how that concept is going to act. Add in his design flair, with offset oval holes, his Nouveau F-holes, and beautiful, teardrop ovals, and they are unique and striking. Plus, I just love his choices in wood!
    Music speaks to us all. And to each of us, she speaks with a different voice.

    That's my point. I appreciate the aesthetic he's developed, and as a 'design guy' myself, I'd be very interested to see what he'd come up with if he was challenged to re-imagine the F body style.

    Reasonable point. I hope its not out of line to suggest you pay Marty to do just that.
