I'll second (third?) that! Absolutely fantastic to see you all, and Ian has outdone himself once again.

And the Sands guitars are both really spectacular!

Cheers,

Congratulations on a splendid pair of guitars, Adam.

Along with Mario Beauregard's, this might be my favourite headstock among all Somogyi apprentices.

Hope you enjoy these for years to come.

Thanks...I cannot begin to tell you how thrilled I am.

I can honestly say that the whole build experience has been devoid of any stress...long waits...or problems whatsoever.

Yes, the headstock looks great doesn't it.
