There's still some work to be done. The LR Baggs Lyric has to be installed, the fret board and bridge has to be blacked, and the action set to my liking, but the bridge is on and she's been strung up for the first time. I opted for the straight bridge because I thought there was enough going on for the eyes already and I thought a pyramid bridge wasn't really aesthetically necessary. I went with the smaller traditional pearl fret markers for the same reason.


Another look at the gorgeous bastogne walnut.
