Sure thing! I'm strapped in for the rest if this thread ?
Mind if I ask about the pickups? Like construction wise and DCR and stuff? Do they use magnet polepieces or bar mags across the bottom?
(I hope my questions aren't annoying... I've just always loved the old Eko 400's ? definitely on my "to build" list )
