Thank you! It is definitely an amazing experience. Actually during the week Steve asked me what I would say to anyone who is interested in the program. My response was if you are into lutherie, this is a real treat. If not, you might just want the final product and not see how the sausage is made!

Thanks John. I had to stop staring at your koa long enough to actually get this done! It will be great to compare both guitars later this year.

This is really cool, and you will be stoked when it gets back from Tony! John K says HRW is as good sounding as ANY Rosewood, and I sure liked both my HRW JKs!

Very nice!!!

Enjoy

Thanks Paul, I'm really excited to have a HRW guitar. Ironically enough I almost bought the JK HRW 000 many years ago and I've now come full circle with this HRW from Steve!

Congrats on your 2nd build, Vasu!

You've inspired me--I'm doing a student build with Steve and Ryan next March...
Thanks Nemoman! I can assure you it will be a thrill and rewarding experience. Let me know what specs you decide on. I think I've convinced Steve and Ryan that any future long scale, deep body 12 fret 00 will be named 'The VP'

Thanks Tom! I hope you have enough room for all of these student builds at B.I.G! No plans to open my own shop (one of the key takeaways is not to quit my day job) but you know what they say, all good things comes in threes...
