"This top is great for lead playing, yet has just enough room in it to let you do some delicate playing as well. Playing with a circus is demanding and I'm called upon to do a variety of musical styles. The show is over two hours long, averaging 9 shows a week for 50 weeks a year and this top keeps me fresh!"
