I have a 12-fret OO from Tom Sands due in summer 2017. Woods are decided and a bit unusual, so I'll reveal all nearer the time!

Ah, color me jealous - Michael is a great builder and terrific guy. Really enjoyed my build with him! Wish he'd reopen his list!

Haven't played any of Michael's guitars yet but I have a couple of guitars with Jimmi's inlays and am constantly amazed at the quality of her work and the enjoyment it gives me. So I hope you get one of her inlays on what is sure to be a really nice guitar.

Hi Larry. I have a baritone with redwood top, macassar ebony b&s and it's exceptional. Looking forward to seeing yours completed!

Hi, Phil. That is a gorgeous instrument! Love the figuring in the Macassar Ebony sides and the "wave" effect in the Redwood top. That must be a lush guitar. Hope all is well with you.

Larry

So far, I see 45 guitars listed in this thread expected in 2017 (almost a guitar a week!). I have a summary list in my initial posting on page 1 of this thread. I look forward to seeing them ALL here in the AGF Custom Shop...

Default What custom guitar commissions are you expecting delivery on in 2017?

I hope to receive my Halcyon NL-00 sometime in the spring. Walnut/Lutz with ebony bridge and fingerboard.

I don't see my Goodall custom build (described on page 4) in your summary, so I think there will be 46 guitars expected in 2017.

I believe you missed my custom Huss & Dalton (post #35). Just mentioning it so we can break the 50 guitar mark to 51!

(but if H&D doesn't count here... nevermind)
