i wish i hadn't had to sell both my dreadnought-sized acoustics...i'm afraid a low C on a 000-sized acoustic is going to be way too flooby.

All I've got is my huge-ass dreadnought that's some Japanese clone of a 70's Martin, but it's 70's Japanese wood + workmanship and I think it may be better.. Just super bright and loud.
Edit: it just has the world's tiniest frets and zomg that makes me such a sloppy player.

NO NO ONLY BARITONES AND BASSES HERE.

I think anything would be an option with an EGC order. Kevin mentioned he loves trying new things, doubt he'd shoot you down as long as the request wasn't a ridiculous pain in the ass and you were willing to cough up the cash.
The ONLY time he declined a custom job was due to the fact that the guy wanted an exact copy of something already currently available, down to the very last detail, only all aluminum.

Mine is being modeled on my Jag neck. I haven't heard of any others.

Yeah, I think so.
Specimen stuff is nice, but pricey.

So, I played avondon's bass. Holy butts. I've NEVER played a bass that felt that nice. Lighter than I expected, and the way that chords sounded on it? Heavenly. I really want one of these basses now.
