I really like this new touch Tom's developed of bevelling part of the sides of the headstock, so that the maple underneath the Rocklite cap can be seen straight on. A lovely little detail that draws you in... And which seems appropriate on a guitar nicknamed Beverly!



"We decided to drop in a little extra bling with a matching copper headstock inlay ... I love how it catches the light, a wonderfully versatile material!", says Tom. Me too!



This mirrors the endgraft, and ties in with the rosette. Visually, odd numbers of things tend to be more aesthetically pleasing, so I'm enjoying that there are three coordinated copper inlays!



And now... off to the shiny shop! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0nEC5vsH7w



So close now...
