Additional observations: The top looks more like the coco bolo example in the current catalog. The peghead veneer looks more like bocate as it is represented in the catalog.

That's beautiful.  I love the eyes near the horns.  Cute kid with a cool shirt, too.

They are cute while they are a short scale. Considering how this young man dresses, he should do well when he switches to a long scale.

For anyone interested check out my um myspace. http://www.myspace.com/imamonkeyman  
 
I am playing the bass with Led Zeppelin. I took a great sounding live Trampled Underfoot, and overdubbed me playing the bass. This really works great because on this song,John Paul Jones in on the Clavinet. The recording also lacks the bass line he would have added using Taurus Pedals. This set up for a really great version to do this as well. I would love to get feedback on this. There are a few mistakes as I am just going along as best I could. I am using my Epic through a J-Station into Cool Edit Pro. You can also certainly check out my other songs. Trampled Underfoot is listed as Trampled Overdubbed. Please tell me what you think. BTW you really get a feel for playing with a great drummer by doing this.
