Bought the candy stripe cab at a show a while back. First piece since I got home from work this summer. Kept it simple.

Killer pattern and nice setting. I can't believe you are buying laker cabs though with your awesome stockpile of rough.

Yeah hard to pass that one up. Fracture free is a big selling point for a laker cab. I need to try to cab one but somehow every one has ended up tumbled.

Nice piece.was the ring shank already patterned? yes, I had been using crazy 8 from rio and then there is a smaller half round which guage I don't remember for smaller rings. The patterned is wider and seems more substancial on the bigger rings and gives another touch.
