    I can work in either DK, it just seems more appropriate to be proper for this one.

    Honestly, I'm with Igor.

    You never see these in green (i'm sure google will prove me wrong in a moment)

    EDIT: Yeah , they exist but they don't look great.. Something like this though....

    Will you need to adjust the cone adjustment screw once it's all set up? The cover is just the cover, and you can set it up with a cheap set of strings without the cover on, then once set up, fit the cover and pass the strings through the bridge protection bit of the cover.
    I've adjusted the string height on a resonator by deepening the saddle notches in the past.

    And don't go green.

    Probably not Simon, but it’s one of those things that will give me a tic every time I pick it up and think of it. Depending on how it goes I will set it up with the kit stuff and upgrade later"

    Yeah, nah. Yeah, NAH.
    To be fair, it wouldn’t be SFG for long as it’d get technicolor once I barfed on it.
    I don’t understand the strength of my reaction the it, but there’s something about that colour that makes me want to retch.

    Might just be your shade of Kryptonite?

    Quite possibly Waz. I can’t stand to be near it at all.

    Some of those pastel Fender shades don't appeal to me either.

    If I was given something sea foam green there is a fair chance it wouldn't remain that colour.
