The Higuerilla OM & OO-12 are done. It's time to send them at Vancouver for their finish, I'll have them at Woodstock 2017.

Now, Time to fly to Italy, for the Cremona Mondomusica 2017! I'll have the OO-12 #6, and the OM #3!

Love the way your finisher manages to wrap that thin glass around your guitars. Your work deserves nothing less.

The wenge binding provides a nice contrast between the light front and mid back and sides - Excellent work as usual Ben.

Hey Ben, beautiful guitars. And it sounds like you are plenty busy. You don’t see Higuerilla often. I own an OM made with Higuerilla/adi and it is one of my favorites. No hijack intended, but here is a thumbnail of the back.

Sweet Back! Its color is way more brownish than my set, it is pretty cool! Yes, Higuerilla is a specy we don't often use, but I had this pair of sets, and It was a cool project. I love to work on special guitars like that, especially for asewome shows like Woodstock
