I took some new indoor shots tonight to get some better detail. As good as new .... even better if you consider how much it has opened up.

I was in touch with Tony recently. The upgrades on this one bring it up to almost $6,000 and you'd have to wait a year. This one is special because Tony does not ship the Brazilian trim options any more (to the states). I think the Brazilian bridge adds a lot of 'zing' to this one. Get it while you can.



Beautiful Brazilian Rosewood rosette and fretboard detailing:



Nice silking:





Bookmatched Brazilian headstock:





Incredible attention to detail - check out his miter joints:



Beautiful Paduak - a little overexposed. Not quite this bright, but close. Sorry about the reflections, but hard to capture:



Great action - approx 6.5/64ths or .105 low E at the 12fret. It is well set up and the neck is true.



One more from the players perspective:
