I can very rarely find information on the Bart Reiter Whyte Laydie Custom Deluxe. Some random questions/comments:
Just curious how many of my BanjoHangout friends own one. I do. Would you be willing to exchange photos of your babies?
Is this model as rare as I think it is? I know Bart is not making them any more.
How many were made?
Any opinions on its quality, tone, and playability?
Thanks, friends.

Hi Gordy,
Can you please say more about the WL you got? Do you play it with steel or nylon? Plastic head? How big a pot? etc.
I would enjoy learning more about it, particularly because you are so happy with it.
All the best,
A.C.
