Yup. There was actually a tangerine MT2 listed last month, and the seller was local to me. I didn't see the ad until 12 hours after it was listed, and it was already too late. I really don't think I'd buy anything unless it was something I could play first, but I hear that the Collings are very consistent, so I'd have to consider it I guess.

I entered that contest they had for an MT2. I'm sure I'm one of many that said 'THAT was the winning entry???' But congratulations to the guy who got it anyway.
