I wouldn't want any of them to run the risk of compromising their dealership agreement (even though there are ways) and I'm inclined to think that there is more chance of saving some serious bucks on ebay.
Sounds like a plan....let me know if I can help. I think I've got this pretty much figured out by now.....

I really like the Monty 350 with the HB-1. How does it compare soundwise to the other 350's?
It's got a bit more grunt in the bridge position, Erik....... but only a bit. The wiring has also been modified to make the 5th knob a master volume control when both volume knobs are set to zero. Very handy indeed!

That was my feeling! 13 needs to be 14 or ...... Nice pics Aitch.
I'd hate to see your Zymol bill!

My wish list for '08 is a new Mapleglo 4003 with walnut wings,,,a somewhat "mojoed" 4003 (no specific finish) for a player,,,and Im still thinking of picking up a Larado 4004.
(if I'd had a few more days,,I could have talked the wife into that red/maple neck Larado that was recently given up)

....oh well,, such is life..
Then of course I just know this is the year Im going to walk up to a garage sale and find that 4002/4005/'68 4001 ect......

That WILL be cool, Graham!
Ron Viney is going to New Zealand in mid March, so if you could give us some idea of your planned dates we can work out whether he'll be in town or not.
The Zymol goes a long, long way, John. I've still got around 2/3 of my first bottle!

Looks like Ron will miss out!!
I'll have a chat with Darren and the lads regarding events, leave, accomodation, etc.
That's a fine looking lineup, Scott....... I like the setting, too!
