LG/SKB/Century Size Comparision Photos

OK, after several requests for this kind of thing, here are some photos showing the relative sizes (as best as can be done via digital photos & the internet!). The center instrument (SKB) is slightly behind the side ones, but not enough to make a real difference in perspective.

All three, side by side, LG - SKB - Century (Standard in the photos, but the Signature is identical in size and outline):

Hey, Wilma-ing-ton is over on the coast, y'all are warmer & more humid than we are mid-state!

(Which is why I'm here! After 40 years in Louisiana & Florida, I'm ready to be a bit more )
