Thanks Jock & Andries, the S.O.B. was definitely a tongue in cheek addition, and Andries the MGB Mini Bucker and position seemed the best method to add a Mag Pup. :-)
I saw this and liked it a lot - so warm and rich and such good lines. I saw it was an uncle crow style. Then I saw those sound holes. Nine point 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999!
