Unfortunately, not this Saturday but next time.

You'll be interested to know, I'm sure, that the tonal characteristics are optimized for the Am chord.

The interior of a guitar is much more interesting than the exterior. A work of art, here.

Tripper,

That looks great. It is amazing how all the small details work together to make a great looking body. I really like the small purfling and the Koa (?) binding. the overall look is very organic and woody.

I can't wait to see and hear you play this one in person.....
