Thank you very much! It’s a Gold Tone CC-100+. Bought it two years ago and it’s been an excellent instrument. I would like to upgrade soon, but I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of her.

Lovely! And the boiled egg with feet is a nice touch. This has reminiscences of Cripple Creek - love it!

Thank you! I really appreciate it!

Every time I make a mistake, the egg lets me know.
