Shorty too - I would be more temped if it had a Venetian?cutaway, no piezo/electronics, and bracing that would let me cut out a spot to drop in a LoZ pup (even the smaller geetar version).
Very pretty indeed. The price seems reasonable (I don't know of any other hollow archtop, guitar or bass, anywhere near that price with a solid wood top - not even the D'Angelico EXL-1, which is almost 1.5k.... though their flat top dreadnaught style bass, the Premier Mott, does have a solid top and is only 525 - archtops are more work to build, especially if solid).
