Default NGD Kathy Wingert Model D (Ralph Bown content as well)

Brought it back from Germany on Tuesday......words fail me!

My Ziricote Ralph Bown OM went with me and stayed, I have a Brazilian OM of Ralph's which I got earlier this year. The new owner of the Bown has already been in touch with Ralph about getting another one!!

Two very happy campers!

Another happy Wingert owner here - Congratulations! While I own a Model E and a OO, I have played a couple of her dreads and they are stunning in every respect! Enjoy, and yes, I too would love to see some pictures!

Best,
Jayne

Indeed! Insufficient info, where are the pics?

Congrats though. Is Germany a good hunting ground?
