Thanks matonanjin2 and Moe.
Good point Moe and something you will find interesting. The dealer - Long & McQuade will take the guitar back no question - which I don't think I will be doing, I do like the guitar. But they showed me another which came from "Godin" (seriously Moe) that was brought into stock as a B grade due to cosmetic flaws in the goldtop and the discount was pretty significant.
This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!
