I like

I don't.

Prefer it to the Ritter. Its cool not having any visible means of tuning mind (the Ritter - not the Lakky). Got a bit of soft spot for a nice quilt.

[The Burpster]

I think its pretty but I'll be very surprised if he gets anywhere near what he wants for it!

Its not collectable, its not uber rare, its not especially pretty (one of my PRSs is prettier than it)....

So good luck to him I say!

Heck it's only personal preference but much though I have soft spot for quilted maple (specially amber/orange oooh errr) I do think the body proportions are just a bit... generous! Makes it look a bit cumbersome but heck what do I know I like Warwicks.

...it's a little bizarre looking. I don't think it works.

I've never liked the quilt top Laklands very much - the back of the body is stunning but overall I wouldn't give it houseroom.

Bulbous?

Guys, guys, guys... It's the foreshortening of the photograph that makes it look that way... The 4-94 has the same body size/shape as the 44 Series. I think it looks luverly - now, rip that rosewood board off and get a bird's eye maple replacement and it'll be scrumptious.

(I may be a tad bias)

You can take tablets for that!
