Or it may very well be outlawed in (pick a state) Ok, Arkansas. That was just another reach for a little humor. I.e., it looks different. Jokes aside (although poor ones) didn't I see one of those in the bar scene of Star Wars? By the way I think I played that joint! Later, Last edited by Danny C.; 10/07/13 05:27 PM.

Ignorance on my part, but what is the instrument name. I looked at hundreds of stringed instrument pictures via Google. Notta one like yours. Thanks for sharing!

My bitty Ashbory still turns in performances that people mistake as being from an upright bass fiddle... --Mac Aren't the Ashbory strings more like thick o-rings stretched out? Rubber, that is? I'm thinking of the Fernandes bass that I have played a couple of times at stores. From what I recall, they were nearly the same thing. Same with the U-bass ukulele bass with the same rubbery strings on them. These strings are probably much more stiff from what John describes. John - I think the RS buzzers are pretty much what the K+K line of pickups are. http://kksound.com/products/doublebigtwin.php I have their mini pure western installed in my Larrivée acoustic guitar. What are you going to use for a pre-amp? Self-made I'm guessing. My Songs, photos, writing,etc. My Sound Cloud
