Bastogne walnut/Swiss spruce Carrick
This guitar went out to The Fellowship of Acoustics in the Netherlands a few weeks back. It was commissioned by a client through their Dream Guitars Program. Unfortunately, in the time between ordering and delivery, the client had a change in personal circumstances and could no longer complete the purchase, so it's now available on the TFOA website.
I have no financial motivation here, the shop has already paid me in full for the guitar, but it's a lovely instrument featuring a truly stunning set of bastogne walnut, so I thought I'd post it here in case any European members may be interested. There's no video clip as yet, I'll post later if they produce one. Photos courtesy of The Fellowship of Acoustics. Full spec ===== Model : Carrick (15" lower bout) Back and sides : figured bastogne walnut Top : AAA Swiss "moon" spruce Neck : Brazilian mahogany (satin finish) Fingerboard + bridge : African ebony Bindings : Rocklite ebano Headstock veneers : ebony front, walnut back Tuners : Gotoh 510 Gold, ebony buttons Finish : polyurethane gloss (satin neck) Enjoy!

Drew, I may have mentioned this another one of your build threads, but just wanted to reiterate how lovely I find the body shape on this model - so balanced and pleasing to the eye. Probably sits very nicely in one's lap, too!
Congrats and hope this finds a happy owner soon.
