Anyhow as Twisted says I've got a 1680 already but it's darned tempting :)
There's probably no point having it if you own a 1680 but still one can dribble. |

I would not be banished from the OFC. :rolleyes:
But I persist, it is a beautiful guitar and the next owner will be a lucky guy!!

BTW, I ordered a black saddle and nut from the MS for my 1680. I'll call it my 'Svelte Stealth'!  |

Location: Phoenix AZ | No. The tone attachment ring is a large brass hoop that you thread through your earlobe which due to its shape and density (the ring, not your ear) extenuates the mid to high frequencies of the guitar as hear by the player. |
