It’s always fun to see what you guitar might look like after the finish is applied. Ryan sent this picture showing what the colors would look like (with the purpleheart being used for the binding shown down the middle of the back):
We elected no back center stripe given how lovely the match is without it. I think prior to the parlor Steve and Ryan built for me, all of my guitars had backstripes, but they did so well with it
…the parlor back being (pretty obviously?) sycamore.
This Indonesian rosewood looked like another candidate for similar treatment.
