I'm on my third FE for my RBL. The first was so ugly (exhibition grade with no figure) that it was immediately returned for replacement. The second one cracked due to the FE screw coming loose. There's almost no thread to hold it on and the screw should be made longer, but isn't.
The third is a nice (not great) piece and has held up well.
I ordered a RBL-28 last night, but, this time it will have standard grade wood. Save your money boys. It's, generally, not worth the extra expense.
The only one I had apart was the second and it had no serial number.
