GBB

She/ he is about 3.5" and destroyed the last molt. Who has a guess?
I guess we're going with male :). I should have stated before, but I'm a beginner, can you point out what you're seeing?
 
Male, furrow looks like a unifrom line all the way across rather then appearing "lippy" inbetween the top set of book lungs.

Weather correct or not (im still practicing this), thats what i see an why i think male
 
Male. Can see a spot in the middle of the furrow instead of lips forming. The epi plate says a fair bit on this sp, as well as the furrow.

At the size of your specimen the lips are usually clearly present.

The females are actually usually darker between the top lungs. However the inner sides of lungs are still straighter in males. Like yours seems to be too.

As others have said I would lean male. But GBB are confusing.

I have edited your photo to illustrate -

 
@KezyGLA i appreciate you highlighting and juistyfing the reason you think it's a male. It gives the opportunity to newbies as myself to learn. Thanks for taking the time.
 
@Alienwiredgirl no probs. Happy to help. Always got to remember that there are very confusing species when it comes to ventral sexing. So examining the exuviae for spermathacae is cricial for the 100% Although, it is always nice to have a suspicion of what you may have :p
