For me .... it is a far, far better thing that I do (not buy), than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.

I don't believe I've ever seen the "dust ring" on an inside horn Columbia before. Interesting.

Early, probably. My 'Elite' has one.

(I see it's doing that thing where the picture posts sideways. Don't know how to fix it, but I guess it's no big deal.)
