Location: SoCal		Al will be shipping my Collector's out Monday so I have no first hand knowledge of the model. However, reports back from NAMM are impressive.

Englemann Spruce, ebony fretboard & bridge, NEW BOWL, OP-Pro, LX, abalone & ivory inlaid rosette, etc. Impressive.

Couple of dealers are advertising the Collector's - Music123 will not have availabilty until Feb 25th.

Al can put it in your hands before then. Not supposed to discuss prices but I paid less through Al than what I have seen advertised.




Snooze, you loose...

I am anxious to see if this one can unseat his 30th CL as his favorite new guitar!
