it was a jazzy type gig and the 55 sounded great at a low volume. Can't wait to play it at my local blues jam


There's definitely something about the necks on Rod's instruments - they're just so slick. I've said it before and I'll say it again: these things stand close comparison with anything I've ever played.

The sunburst looks great, no sure on the no pick guard though. Black or tortoiseshell would look pretty neat on the sunburst, just my thoughts.
