Beautiful craftsmanship BTW
Mark and I discussed this...but I really want a thinner rosette overall, so he will keep it for a spec guitar likely, or someone else...it's a bit of a heartbreak to do this, but...

So, the overall theme will be the same, just thinner black (thickness of the bocote) on the inside and outside of the turquoise/bocote with maybe an additional thin white maple line/AB line to break up the thinner black rings on both to match up with the rest of the top purfling lines...but I like the black (AB) binding around the soundhole!

But we'll see what Mark comes up with!!
