It is refreshing to see this magical wood come up in a build again.
One caveat: don't let Michael tell you it's Harry's fault about anything.

Thanks Steve...
, Bruce definitely has some great Koa and Myrtle. It feels like after Rosewood and Mahogany guitars, I actually see more Koa guitars than I do Maple guitars in recent years. I will pass the Harry Fleishman reference back to Michael...
(For those of you who don't know, CA luthier Harry Fleishman was one of Michael's early mentors).
