She is waiting at the shop, peacefully.

This is the first time that I have a guitar with no customer who ordered it, I hope she won't wait too much time

Bravo! I think your design changes with your headstock and bridge are moving your work in the right direction. Keep it up!

Hi Nathan, thanks for your kind words

This is one of the coolest wood I've worked with. Small pores, easy to bend, smells good and looks awesome. Nice Tap-tone too

I got a set of T'zalam as a replacement for my botched attempt at building with birch. It does smell good.

Whisky is a recent passion for me. I am not a big drinker but I love the philosophy which is pretty close than the one we have in the Lutherie world.

It is incredible to see how many different places there is, in Scotland for example, which produce a lot of different kind of flavors, identities and smells
