Hi All, They were very cool. Some of the first way oversized Columbus tubing. Santana was experimenting with the tubing and the combination of brazing and tigging. They wanted to get it right before they used it on their tandems. I seem to think they are out of our time base though(90-92ish). I do miss Santnna's fillet brazed tandems(80's), they were true works of art.
