This is also by mr. carver, from around 2008 I think. I purchased it to essentially take apart and learn how to make my own. The spoon part of the gourd is not low enough so the action is much too high and the fifth string is veering off to the left and sloping downward from the rest. Rather tough to play but i can jam a few toonies on it, congo prince jig sounds nice on it.
