Default LA2-LE Delivered

Got my LA2-LE (WS body with NS SS 12 fret neck / no electronics) from LA Guitar Sales and all I can is say is WOW!
Thank you Ted and Helene - everything you said about this was spot on. Fun to play, understated beauty, incredible tone and did I mention fun to play?

Congrats. I'm currently deciding between this and the full hybrid WS with a short scale 12-fret neck, mostly because of budgetary concerns.

You're not making my decision easy.

I should have read this before responding in your thread. If you're thinking of one of Ted's hybrid/CO customs or an all hybrid than there is nothing to think about, the hybrid/CO combo is awesome!
