I am awaiting my Scout and it should arrive next Tuesday.  I also own a RK-35 and want to know how you all are liking the Scout.  I'll definitely try to get it settled in as quickly as possible to see what I think of it.  I'll definitely get back on here with photos and initial comments.

Although I know I don't have the most discriminating ear, I know I got great value with mine. I did upgrade the bridge (to a much harder wood.). It's funny that I changed strings yesterday and thought of a post on this forum to see if any other Scout owners recommended any other changes and what strings they liked. So hopefully, you have kicked off the discussion.

Congrats! The Scout is a great Banjo.
