Thanks Ivan. I agree about the looks, not nearly as sexy as the originals. However, I could get over the looks if they were significantly better sounding. But for now, my original Strads (which I love) are staying put.
Interesting comment about the Aida's as well, makes one wonder what they are doing in their design & engineering department at SF.
