Thanks Deft! I think this one is over a year in the making but it has worked fine for me, and I think it has given John time to do other projects as well without me "dogging" him for this guitar. The longer time has helped us with design choices that seem to be working.

thanks Jamie. I appreciate your kind words as well. As John said, the proof of the pudding is in the tone, but I like my chances. You've tasted that pudding as well
...John delivers on tone every time.

Thank you Geoff! John sent me pics he had found somewhere of a guitar with a design along this line probably two years ago. I kept that picture and although that one had different woods, I like this wood combination equally well or better.

Whatever, it all works.
