Totally off-topic. So you're an HD-28 picker? I've been playing a Martin D-35 since 1975. I had a friend now deceased who had a beautiful Martin HD-12 with the 12 fret neck and the slotted head. It was an awesome guitar. About a year ago I bought a Blue Ridge 12 fret slot head parlor guitar with D45 inlay on the top (not the sides and back.) The parlor guitar has a wider fingerboard than my D35 and I prefer it for finger picking. I'm pretty pleased with it. I've lusted after a D45 for 35 years.
