Russ -

Some very interesting ideas happening there.

Where did you get the tapered legs? Much more graceful than the straight-as-an-arrow clunky things found on most guitars. Only drawback is that they would have to be tailored to the player/buyer. Regardless - nice touch.

The BLACK ones aren't tapered? Good Lord - my eyesight is worse than I thought it to be. Do yourself a favor - Don't get old!
