Saul needs to use that as a quote somewhere!

Sucker has a huge neck, which I love. Mahogany neck and center core, Maple top, back and sides. 25" scale neck, which is very nice. TV Jones TV trons which sound really good clean and distorted - I like them combined. Great pots and caps, because it has nice sounds from the low to high on both pickups' volume and tone knobs. At loud volume near the amp, it does want to feedback, but seems to be very controllable. I love feeling the air come out of the f-holes on my arm. Saul worked his ass off to get it to me (my wife surprised me with it last night for my B-day and our anniversary). I mean, I knew it was coming, but not this soon.

She can call my wife and commiserate (sp?), if she'd like. I'm pretty much eternally in the doghouse.

Why is it that every time I see a new Koll I'm reduced to the level of Keanu Reeves?

"Whoa."

Great guitar, great story. I'm sure it makes the instrument that much more precious.
