Thanks Folks...! I had these raw sets in my fingertips for a long time before they were sent to Laurent... I've been picturing them with finish ever since, it's SO gratifying to finically see this come together!

I love the straight grain on the Braz on the first one! Keep the pics coming! Can't wait to hear one of those sound clips down the road.

Howdy Folks, Laurent is in the final stages here... I'll be taking delivery first of the year it seems...! Talk about a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year

I'm going to have him leave the Burl pick guards in the case compartment unattached, I'm having last min uncertainty, lol... The guitar looks so perfect as is, I need to see with my own eyes and do a before and after test... Like everyday for a week! Ha...

Dave,
Sounds prudent to me. Can't go wrong either way.

That’s a fantastic way to close out the year... I look forward to hearing your impressions about the 0.6” scale difference...
