Default High Figures Koa/cedar Penelope Crossover

I've finished this highly flamed Koa/cedar Penelope nylon crossover:





Here are some specs and more pictures:

Top is Old Growth Western Red Cedar from standing dead wood
Back/sides, endgraft, and headplate are flamed Koa
I pc Mahogany neck with 2 way adjustable truss rod
Cocobolo binding, heelcap, trussrod cover, back headplate laminate, and bridge
Bone nut and saddle
Black Gabon Ebony fretboard and tuner buttons
Knilling planetary geared tuning pegs with 4 to 1 turning ratio
Radiused fretboard with 1 7/8ths nut and 2 5/16ths saddle string spacing
25.5" scale length
14 7/8ths lower bout
12 frets to the body

This is a very lightly built guitar with great balance and responsiveness
The total weight is 3 1/4lbs

I will have this guitar up for sale and will post sound clips as soon as they are available.

Thanks!
Mark
