As usual, Joel has his signature treated metal work as his inlays. Simply stunning! Be sure to catch it at the show tomorrow

Yeah...this one is mine.
The replacement for the 00-R that was destroyed during shipping almost exactly 2 years ago.
I had intended to pick the guitar up in-person at Woodstock, but fell rather ill on my first flight (EUG-Denver) this past Thursday. Had to spend the night in Denver, and then fly home the next day. Still recovering.
The guitar is indeed a 00-R, East Indian Rosewood, but with Euro/spruce...not Sitka...I let Joel pick this. The black top, well, let's just say we went all "Johnny Cash" on this aspect of the guitar. I guess Joel and I are outlaws at heart.
I hear that the guitar has ended up sounding pretty good (understatement), and I'll probably take delivery on Wednesday of this week.
Sorry I missed meeting you, Marcus, and also missed a whole bunch of friends.
So it goes...
