I love walnut and yours is very special. The name seems quite appropriate especially if that latte is made from the finest Costa Rican or Guatamalan Arabica beans from the volcanic regions of those countries.

Thanks you guys.
Costa Rican Indeed,,,
Especially since I am half Costa Rican myself, hehe...Happy to be alive and well.

The controls are mostly basic. Same as a normal Orion - Vol Pan Bass Treb .
but then the front most knob
is Vol for the middle pickup.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Wow. I saw this on the forum years ago and have been searching for it ever since. Then today - POW! Right in front of me!!! I've owned a few Orions and this has got to be the nicest I've ever seen. I love the 3 pickups - must give you a lot more tone flexibility. Thank you for posting.
