All of you - thank you for serving our country! Welcome home, Fingerpickin.
I played a CA OX recently, and it played/sounded great.

As people have already said, these are not cheap, but CA seems fit for the desert. The Epiphone Masterbilt sounds to be an excellent choice as well. |

This one needs to go to Mythbusters. I want to see 'em cut it and play it while it's taped together. I'll donate an old Harmony or such for comparison purposes. Unko Paul |

Thanks for that first vid, Andy. That's so funny... I'll be someone puts together a stage act around it soon. Bolo???
Here's a vid of Acoustic Guitar Mag's Teja Gerkin reviewing the little travel guitar, in case anyone wants to hear what it sounds like:

Again, I don't have a financial stake (or steak) in this, just own one. |

Amen to that. It is an honor to serve an appreciative country. I grieve for our Viet Nam vets (my brothers). It is bittersweet to think that I'm a better person to my country now than more than 30 years ago. What is the Planet Waves soundhole system? I might need one. |

Mahalo bradda, I'm going to be in the International Zone in Baghdad (Riverview condos). Well I've already settled for the Little Martin in Koa. Since I've received it I can seem to put it down. I used to become very impatient waiting for my computer to boot up. Now I have my Punahele next to the computer and I forget about the computer. This baby rings! We need the civilians for support. It's a team effort, the sooner we grasp that concept the better off we will be as a nation. |
