On another note, I don't believe I've ever seen a rabbit that big.

Hope I don't have to pet him when I go to look at it! Smile

Definitely a BMI - nice guitars, they're called the working man's steel for a reason. I liked mine, but it was heavy.

I have had several BMI's pass through my place, that is a BMI, for sure. Nothing wrong with those guitars, & they were built good. Zane Beck was a very smart fellow. I played one I had here with Fred Newell in Cumberland Md, years ago. I had a mullen at the time which had to be sent to the factory for repair, that little BMI served me well.
