but let my tell you one thing: one of the best basses i played in england was a guitarshaped lott. absolutly beautiful but not for sale.

Guitar shaped Lott? Where did you see that? How certain are they that it is a Lott or even English? If this is true, it really upsets the apple cart..lol

Yes, please tell me/us in any way you can more about this possible Lott Cornerless Bass. I say possible because I have never even dreamed of this possibility that the English might have made a Guitar shaped DB.

Here is an emailed Pic fresh from Arnold. It just went in the Back today. I will take more and better pics in about a month or so when the Bass is done. maybe if we get lucky, Arnold will send some more pics when he has the time.

I spoke with Arnold yesterday and was asked which Adjusters do I want in the Bridge. I chose the Ebony like I have in my Gilkes over the aluminum ones.

The Hart Bass restoration will be done in less than two weeks. I already have an invitation with a Chamber group to play the Trout next month. I have 2 other concerts in November and plan on taking the Hart out for a few spins..
