Ummm...sorry KO, looks again...si mit yer eye spy...its a Padzookie, and her name is
Moi Nymphet. (although she really is disguised morning glories)

and she be dressed in 10s 14s and 24s

and yes she could be restrung with 12s 24s and 36s, however, she don't gotts no truss rod and her body cavity just ain't big enough to really handle the thicker gauges lower resonance.

So me tune her to A above middle C at 432 Hz.

"This 432hz. frequency vibrates on the principals of natural harmonics and unifies the properties of light, time, space, matter, gravity and magnetism with biology, the DNA code and consciousness. Profound effects on consciousness and the cellular level of our bodies are observed using concert pitch at 432 hertz hertz. You can literally "feel" the difference of connecting to natural resonance." ~ http://www.omega432.com/music.html

Padma, that is beautiful and original. I love the sculpted soundholes, the wood binding and the finish! Is the tailpiece entirely made of wood?
