I will be receiving an ARK Senorita S6-12 from Tony Klassen. Full body sunburst, minus the hand painting and rhinestones. Adirondack/Mahogany. I should get it in the Spring, right at about 2 1/2 years after ordering it. His wait list is now 4 1/2 years, so I'm lucky I got on it when I did!

Not really a commission but I do have a custom Furch coming in Feb/March. Got a D33LR cutaway with a Tobacco burst and special Tunners (from the millennium line).

I think GAS will be resolved for a while (Been wanting a killer Dread Cutaway).

Another Edwinson, in "Tree" Mahogany and Tunnel 13 Redwood. We're still in the kicking around ideas stage, but we hope to incorporate some metalwork and gemstones into the design if it can be made to work.

I'd like to score another Olson SJ and I've got some plans with Bruce Petros as well -- but the Canadian dollar is so low right now that I'm going to enjoy my current guitars for a bit.

I've been meaning to buy a Martin dreadnought for so long and I might finally pull the trigger this year. Something modest, nothing too fancy.

Mau,

I think the D-28 Louvin Brothers would be the perfect Martin for you.

After a lot of "flip-flopping" on specs, I'm currently finalizing the details of my build with Marc Beneteau due later this year (~Aug):

Super Jumbo / Sitka & Padouk / Laskin bevel / 25.75" scale / 1-13/16" nut

Beyond excited

Thanks for the suggestion, Colin, but I think a red spruce top would be a better fit with the style of music that I play.

Caleb Smith Deep Body OM Adi/Mahogany
This guitar has been a commissioned a few years and Caleb should be getting stared on it in the next couple of months. For the first time ever I'm actually pretty GAS free right now. However who wouldn't like another guitar!!!

I have a build starting this year with Frankie Montuoro. He's got a bench copy Martin series going, but I think I may go another direction as I have some fine Martins.
