Lovely looking instrument! I'm very fond of my SCGC "RS".

Hope that you find the "patients" to pay you fees whilst you use your patience awaiting delivery (Just messin' with ya!)

That's a beaut! I have really liked the SCGC's all-mahogany OMs that I have played. Look forward to the sound report when you get it in your hands.

Best,
Jayne
