Probably not what you are looking for, I've a 192something Vega Tu Ba Phone all original. I would let it go as I am hoping to get a better Guitar. I play mostly clawhammer but can also make a serious melodic sound uppicking too. email is qtech@ionet.net. BTW The original Scruggs sound was on a Gibson with hide top! I notice mine can sound very nice uppicked with that deliberate Scruggs bluegrass back roll. It grabs the ear.
