Dr.Word - You are indeed fortunate to have such a fine instrument. I'm afraid I could not do justice to one of Mr. Perry's instruments though. One of Mr. Perry's instruments wouldn't last very long in my hands. I think I expect too much from an instrument. If I were to win the lottery I would certainly find the time to acquire an instrument such as his for the picking sessions at my house! Until then I'm a lower middle class back porch picker that will occasionally use my instrument as a drum!

I certainly appreciate you putting the URL in your posting - BEAUTIFUL instrument!!
Peace - Steve
