Hmmm....

Things that DON'T need to happen in my life:

1. My daughter grows up to be a politician
2. My wife threatens divorce if I buy any more instruments
3. Bill Collings makes an archtop tenor ukulele
4. See items 2 & 3

ha, interesting Radio Tone, I had a Radio Tone guitar, once upon a time, it was a cool guitar. I note that the Radio Tone has steel strings, I would be curious as to whether the Collings would be steel or nylon.

Not a radio tone but a nice archtop tenor...go to www.moorebettahukes.com and the listen section and you'll see Tim Sweeny playing gorgous archtop tenor.
