Wow that 000 12 fret is BOSS!

Have fun at the show and I bet they all go home with new owners...

Cheers

Tim, that 12 fret mahogany 000 looks fantastic. Do you use the traditional depth of an OM and 000 for your models?

Hi Chuck,

I think its a tad deeper than a traditional OM but I can't say for sure because its all packed up or I would measure it and tell you. Sorry...

I always enjoy seeing your creations. I can almost hear the tone from here!

If this guitar makes it through the show without being purchased, I will be VERY surprised. I played it a few weeks back at Tim and Mary's and it knocked me over. Lots of volume and warmth, but great sustain and clarity too with fat trebles. It just doesn't get much better......

Thanks for the compliments Todd.

And finally our third guitar, The Isaiah which is based on our popular SDG body shape. The back and double sides are Australian Black Acacia with a Western Red Cedar top.













Mosac rosette:





Luckenbooth side sound port:






Matching mosaic element in the slotted peghead:





Fretboard:






And mosaic end wedge too, but you'll have to see that one in person since I forgot to photograph it Finish is oil varnish.

Love the Isaiah with its mosaic theme--just a beautiful instrument. Looking forward to seeing it...

[Tim McKnight]

Hi Nemoman,
We are certainly looking forward to meeting you and finally putting a face to a name.

Hi John,
We wish you could make it to the festival. Perhaps we will see you next year at the Memphis show?

That is one gorgeous slotted headstock! Lovely details and balance with the end wedge and the rosette. Nicely done! Sorry I will not be there to check these out.

Have a great time there. Best,
Jayne

Sorry that you can't make it Jayne. Your absence will be missed. We will look forward to seeing you at the next show or perhaps at McJam-X?

[Treenewt]

Here I was hoping to see y'all at IMBA this weekend in Raleigh! I hope you have a great time on the left coast, and sell 'em all!

Happy to say that this guitar now resides on a yacht in Santa Barbara 😃
