Really great build thread which completely documents Ted's wonderful attention, if not obsession, to detail. Notwithstanding all that, you are going to end up with a gobsmackingly great guitar. I am fortunate to have one of Ted's instruments and it gets a great deal of attention, despite world class competition from Stefan Sobell, Steve Fischer and Ralph Bown. Ralph has seen/inspected my Astrand. His pronouncment: "Clean as a whistle" kind of says it all.
That said, I'm expecting another guitar from the equally great Tom Sands later this month. Life, as they say, is good !
Cheers,
Ian
