Should start in 2018, but might not be finished until 2019.

I originally had two guitar commissions scheduled for delivery in 2018. But as it turns out, I have two guitars nearing completion that were were both originally targeted as late 2017 deliveries that have been delayed slightly (it happens...). These should now be delivered in January and February 2018 respectively.

- An East Indian RW/Carpathian Spruce Rhapsody model by North Carolina luthier John Buscarino
- An Australian Blackwood/Adirondack Spruce FT-16-C by California luthier Bruce Sexauer.

The original two commissions placed back in 2016 and earlier in 2017 are planned for delivery in later in 2018 are as follows:

- Colorado luthier Michael Bashkin (Koa/Swiss Spruce 00-12)
- Oregon luthier Nick Kukich of Franklin Guitar Co. (Cuban Mahogany/German Spruce OM).

Below are some shots of the set of Koa that Michael and the Cuban Mahogany set that Nick will using to make these instruments.

I see Tim McKnight is out to a commanding lead with 4. Not that it's a race. But, still... he is out to a commanding lead.

I am expecting the responsible amount of builds in 2018... Which is 0!

I have a Zircote/Carpithian OM coming form Mr. Bashkin. Was supposed to be 2017, but we have postponed due to Jimmie Wingert maternity leave (headstock inlay).
