One you'd disassemble just to see how it's put together? My Burns had the Wild Dog setting and, didn't seem to do all that much. But I loved it, warped neck and all.<br /><br />A fair price I think.Marshall_Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17813579074330812057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734566.post-39380224791901128872012-05-15T17:51:04.822+01:002012-05-15T17:51:04.822+01:00Split Sound, Jazz, Treble, and Wild Dog!Split Sound, Jazz, Treble, and Wild Dog!Gavin Lloyd Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10937598384359522498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734566.post-48278269218665400872012-05-15T17:45:14.253+01:002012-05-15T17:45:14.253+01:00Very cool!
