I know it'll be awhile before I have it but I'm very stoked.
You should be stoked — my two favorite guitars are my Halcyon OM and my SCGC H13:-) I actually have the stock standard H13, which is Sitka/Mahogany. Very different guitars, but they share supremo playability and build quality. So, I'm actually thinking about a similar combo — sounds like you're looking at standard H model ? Sitka/RW with 14 fret?

Welcome to the family — look forward to hearing about your build.
