About time that guitar made its way back to Texas--won't be long now!

Thank you John...

I really like the dark streaks in the Southeast Asian Rosewood. I can't wait to see it up close to see how the grain in the Celebes Ebony works with that!

I think the ebony will look wonderful with the dark rosewood lines. What really impresses me is the way the wood choices in the rosette reflect the body and the binding. Must have been some planning involved with those decisions. Gotta try that😅

Thanks John...yeah I guess there was a lot of planning, and then I even let Steve throw in his opinion every once in a great while hahahahaha. I think you do pretty well yourself, so maybe you shouldn't try, keep going as you are!

Tom, I like that look. The entire guitar is very uncluttered, clean and elegant!

Thank you Mike, I appreciate it and trust your well defined sense of design. That neck is going to beautiful from the front or the back! Kinda like Kathy hahahaha!!!!

I am getting anxious to see this all together of course!
