I love it, Rob! I will think about it and the most important thing is: the colour. I guess you know me, seeing that mock up, but I don't think that will be it. Let's think!

An EB-2 with a single T-bird pickup in the 'sweet spot' would rip. It just needs a parchment pickguard!

He and I have the same hat size, but I already have a good black and a nice gray that I inherited from my father.

That's pretty amazing, Rob.

Love it! Of course you know that I'm partial to that body shape.
