Bert - We really don't like to talk about Spaws many deformities here. Just the fact that his personality is exposed to us is bad enough.I know what you mean about a zouk. I've been looking for that sound for many years and I'm expecting the delivery of an octave mandolin soon. But I doubt that I'll give up my guitars. There are some songs that are just going to sound better on an old Martin { or whatever... }. Tell us about your zouk - what kind is it, scale length, tuning, ect. Thanks. Wesley
PS - Have you heard Citternalia by Steven Sobel yet?? Amazing stuff on a 10 stringer tuned DGDGD
