| No problems. I dont think you will find any other drawings with more detailed dimensions. Those shown would be enough to get the scale to measure other parts. |

No similiarities at all.
The 2800 is much better looking and sounding than Amy shi Winehouse.

| Got some prints somewhere that were taken a couple of months after the CC's arrived at North Eton. Will scratch around and try to find them this weekend. |
