The new one, in the go bar deck right now receiving its X braces, is an example of "Old Standard's" AAA grade and is stupid expensive, but I am throwing it in as compensation for a few more worm derived pinholes than I expected in this otherwise great set of Brazilian. I have had very good luck with Old Standard's grading in the past, and doubt they'll have let me down on this one. The other top will likely get used soon enough, and whatever guitar that is will be privileged to have it.
The back braces are in!

Another back with off the chart character, plus matching sides, incredible! Hope you can do a quick comparison of these D's
