Interesting! I'll bet it's a travel guitar or a parlor.

Yes, I do know what it is and I feel obligated to share the news with my AGF brothers and sisters. But please, please do not tell Michael that I let the cat out of the bag.

The new Rainsong is..... an all carbon six string banjo, (AKA Banjitar) with onboard Fishman Prefix Plus and custom case by Calton. The new "Deliverance" model will be limited to just six thousand pieces and every one will be personally signed by Steve Martin (or someone from the Kardashian family) so these are sure to be collectable. The AGF discount price for this very limited and unique investment grade instrument is $4995 plus $300 for overnight shipping. To ensure your spot on the waiting list just wire a $2000 non refundable deposit to my personal Swiss bank account and you will be all set.

Ok folks, you heard it here first.

Did you check the swiss account? I think the funds have cleared but I demand it be Steve Martin or a representative of Ned Beatty's family. If its a Kardashian I will hunt you down.

Ted and Ashvin... TOADS!

Now I am devastated... I was really hoping for a Ghandar-pancham sitar in carbon fiber--preferably in a twenty-three string model. I could also go with an eight string resonator with a traditional neck profile and short scale. Or maybe an f-hole archtop with a short scale neck... well, that one might actually work!

Although, I could settle for a travel guitar.

Very sorry Ashvin, but at least I didn't say anything about the mandolin.

I just appreciate the profile/size of the N1 neck. Don't see the need of a truss rod in my RS geetars. No N2 for me.
