that one got my attention.  can't tell from the build sheet but this one's a short scale, correct? elsewise, this one hits most of the checkboxes for me  - LEDs, unlined fingerboard. anniversary electronics, small body.  rather have a B string than a drop tuner.  if it's a short scale, must make for a real floppy (D) E string.

once again, i'm in the financial doldrums, and it's not enough to make me think about selling off one of my collection or a body part to finance a purchase.  i'm sure this will make somebody else a happy owner.

short scale confirmed.
