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.

Thumbs up Hart Coin

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.
