Dark is faster than light, otherwise you'd see it.
I'm glad the LE Bongo has black knobs...

Dang, I love the proportions on the Sterling 5, it looks sexy as all heck. I'm so looking forward to getting ahold of one.
Thanks for posting the pics Ken!

Ok, I wouldn't want any of the private reserve instruments. I'd be too afraid I'd mess one up. Would have to keep it in a bank-vault or something.
My luck I'd pull it out to play and then fall on it. Or some punk would run away with it.![]()

trussrod adjustment:
Click here for an image!
less relief / flatter = lower action
more relief / bow = higher action
do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your pressious!
also, if you are lucky enough to have a 100th namm sr4: the truss works the other way around on that one!
