I sold this one a while back...wish I hadn't.  The original owner had the grip shaped to his hand and it was to beefy for me.  I should have sent it to Jim to have it reshaped, it was a very nice bow.  It was 64" and made with some kind of exotic wildly figured maple with ebony accents.  As nice a fit and finish of any bow I've had.
