In terms of physical size, it is not as large as a Willson or any so-called 6/4 instrument. It looked to me on the large side of 4/4, while a Conn is on the small side of 4/4, but that is based on physical appearance only and not on sound. The time I heard Scott play it (at Dillon), he sounded wonderful. He graciously allowed me to toot on it, but I was so intimidated by the circumstances that I don't even have my bonehead conclusions to offer, heh, heh.
I have to say, though, that it felt much more resonant in my hands than any Willson I've ever played, but the Willson's are rather known not to provide much feedback.
