That's too bad, I was about to start taking bets! =)

Strumelia, it's only fair you know my rassling arm is about 100 pounds of pure muscle. The rest of me weighs six or seven pounds. Lol!
The voice isn't bad. The wood used for the body is too thick, in my opinion. It has a sweet, bright sound, but lacks bass and volume. The intonation isn't the best, either. Almost all of the frets are a tiny bit off. It doesn't bother me that much, and I play it regularly, but it would drive someone with perfect pitch mad.
Thank you! Sadly, I do not know who made that one. When I bought it it was in a few pieces and missing tuning pegs. I put it back together and carved some new pegs for it so it can have a voice again. There are no markings anywhere on or inside it. If anyone sees this and thinks they know who could have made it, please let me know!

Robin, you should know that I recently joined a gym and have been working out.
I'll arm rassle Strumelia for the last one! :)
I'll take the first one and the last two please, stacked like a club sandwich with a little bacon and some mayo on the side. YUM!

William, i was looking at that one with a little lustful covetousness myself. Interesting looking; how's the voice?
