So I know everyone has been waiting with baited breath for the thrilling conclusion to this saga...
happy to report that I am now the owner of a lovely Collings MT model with a glossy brown finish. Saw it on a listing here in the classifieds from someone who was looking to downgrade, so traded my Eastman MD315 plus cash for it. We both feel we got solid deals. The Mando Cafe strikes again! Thanks for everyone for their help... now I just gotta practice and live up to this beautiful instrument.
