And some people have concerns about the effect a burst finish has on the soundboard? Not my cup of tea, but if you like it, it's all good.

Nice job on the photography.

I just gave the old artist guy something to do so he would quit talking politics for a few mins....I might have him paint something different on it to see what else he comes up with.
