Beautiful little guitar! I also like the silhouette of the unique bridge.:up: I can imagine it will look spectacular.

WOW, that guitar is a step beyond all before and that says a lot as you guys have made many stunning instruments including for me!

Thanks Dan. We think it’s a nice little bridge.

Wow Tom, that’s saying a lot knowing what we did on yours. I’m not sure we put this at the top of decorative themes, but our customer loves it, so it’s satisfying. :)

Wow ... what a top ... and that rosette is stunning Steve!!!

Good grief ... just scrolled and checked out the back ... WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!

Thanks Dan, glad you like the outline! I believe you'll like the bridge itself once in place.

And thanks to you as well, Tom. Working with Christie is a lot like working with you and Dennis. In that you push us out of the comfortable ruts we fall into, and make us discover new territory. It's a blast!

Glad you stopped by, David, thank you. Very much appreciate the kind words.

This looks lovely! I really like the look and the idea of a smaller bevel. It would seem to have just about the same advantages, in terms of comfort, as a larger bevel, but isn't as intrusive on the top. Is this being done for aesthetics, or do you believe the smalller bevel also is more advantageous for the sound? I think some builders feel a larger bevel takes away valuable surface area from the top.

Yes and yes. Thanks for the kind word, Mike!
