I got Jon shuker to make me a 36" tuned DGCF & i use a capo on the 2nd fret , I use Roto sound RB50 strings , & It works really well for me .

I like that tuning.
I don't think I'm likely to buy it, but I'll be keeping my eye on this...

It did cross my mind to put a checkerboard on there somewhere... just couldn't work out where or how... plus thought I might regret it

Scratchplate. You can always change that again.
priscillasnake's stuff is often priced, um, [i]ambitiously.[/i]
Some of the 60s Italian stuff is completely off the wall. This is relatively tame; just a very short scale.
Looks nice. Some suspicious wear on one of the neckplate screws - why has the neck been on + off enough for the screw head to be worn like that?
