    It's the first SLO I've played. So far, it must just be my knowing it's a ray, so it feels like a wider neck, even though I know it's not, at least at the nut. But I definitely love the big al neck, just works for me. Second would be the finished roasted neck, so slippery smooth, just feels great. I love all my kids, don't you?

    Yeah, once I saw it, I knew it was the one for me.

    The bongos are pouting, kinda jealous of that one and the redhead, oh well.
