My New Baby!!

I've waited a little over 4 months....... one hour ago I most joyously took delivery of a beautiful, smooth sounding(with lots of authority), sexy, sleek, carved La Scala!!!!

The sound is incredible (as I expected) and definitely way beyond the Eastman I've been playing.

I will take pictures later when I can let go of her!

Christmas in September!

Well worth the wait!!!!!!!! Arnold and Wil have outdone themselves!!! Thank you guys!!!

Someone should probably stop by pj's house to make sure he's stopping long enough to eat and sleep every now and then.

login to photobucket, go to account options up at the top right corner.
check the make album public option then copy the URL you see there (you can right click it and select "copyshortcut")
then paste that link in your post here and we should be in business.
