    Well I was wandering around on CL tonite and scored another Featherweight for $25. This one is with out a case or pedal but comes with manual and will have to be refinished. I am going to paint it a soft metallic Pink per a very special someones suggestion.

    At any rate I am on cloud nine and I am still amazed I got another one for $25!!

    SCORE!!!!!!! (like they do on the Spanish soccer matches) :D

    I know it will be a gem when you are finished with it. And it will fly out of the studio too!
