I played his OM-45 at the Artisan Show. Awesome. Congrats on your start.

Will be fun to follow along.

Could the AGF member who messaged me do so again? I accidentally deleted the messages. Thanks.

I opted for a solid headstock as it’s what I’m used to, and probably a better fit for a OOO size. Also, John has a great little piece of Mun Ebony that will make for a beautiful headstock.

The torch inlay that he uses is beautiful - are you having that inlaid onto the headstock?

No, I did not select to have the headstock inlaid. I want this guitar to showcase the beauty of the wood and John’s impeccable craftsmanship.

Can’t argue anything about that. Congrats on this...it’s already amazing!

The wood is indeed beautiful enough to be showcased!
