Paul, Love the color. I believe my 2001 All-Rounder is the same. Beautiful dark green, in the shade - but in the sun so much sparkle and star dust it practically glows. Love love love it. On Monday, October 5, 2020 at 3:09:05 PM UTC-5 Joel S wrote: > Looks very nice Paul. > > On Mon, Oct 5, 2

I'd bet it's a 56. This is the seller I bought my AR in summer 2017. It measures 55.5. I'd be surprised if this guy bought a 56 and a 58. 56/56 seems more realistic. I asked him if he'd sell the QB when I was there and he said 'never!' hope it finds a good home.. they were good people. -- You
