That is one impressive looking guitar, Steve. You have my mind spinning. (Or is that a side effect of recovering from surgery?)

Thank you all for the kind comments.

My friend who has this guitar is married to a very talented photographer. She promised that she would take some pictures and send them to me. Because of that, I didn't take that many of this one. I'll look around and see if I have more.

I must have been asleep for a while as I never saw this thread! Beautiful guitar. I love the rosette/headstock/neck theme. So seriously, that rosette is just MOP and ebony dust? Does the CA "gum" it up? Did you use black CA?

At least that's what's coming back right now....

Great idea on the rosette, BTW. Keeping that goop away from the guitar's top as you've done is brilliant.

Yepper...that was from me. And may I say that I now regret selling that piece?



That looks fantastic! I always enjoy seeing guitars built from wood I've sold...at least when they look like that one. Bravo...nicely done.

I love the inlay work on the rosette. It's gorgeous.
