Ha ha ha, yeah, domani mattina (tomorrow morning). What I know about XBs can be fit on the head of a pin and leave room for the Gettysburg address. That's why it's still new. lolololololol

You can try this one and get an idea of how you feel about it before putting forth with the samoleones. They ARE pricey.

I hadn't even tried it yet, so it was certainly new. (I've since gotten my Bb B-Rad as well). I'm not overly hung up on that as long as someone has alcohol to keep harps wiped down between players and it's between people I'm friends with/know well. You and Charles are good friends.

Ok, new only in the vernacular. It is 7 years old BUT has only about 13 minutes play time on it.
