Did you guys install the "Silverlight" so's you can zoom in on the pics? You can get some great detail with this feature.

I didnt know Bruce Foxton had a Jazz pup in the treble position.

Already had Silverlight. I noticed the Jazz pup too, and was surprised.

The D & G string courses on the 8-string Ric look messed up, like they are caught on the edge of the bridge saddle or something...
