OK, here you go.
I've included a close up picture of the bridge....the material is the secret to the sound.
I bought a Rogue copy of the Vinny Bell version (w/sympathetic strings) to replace this one on tour to keep this one safe.
The newer ones have a shiny plastic bridge....this one is like bakelight, and it has a much rounder, warmer tone.
I guess I could do an A/B sound file you guys could listen to if you think it would be of use.
