Wow, a jaw-dropping transformation indeed! But, what? no close up of the Botswana? From the group shot I think it's the best of the bunch, although they all look fantastic.

Got it at a small town rock show in Sept. for a buck. Got up there and no one would take a check, only had a few bucks to get some things for my grandkids. Learned my lesson, will got with more cash next year.
