There are so many great guitar builders today, but so few great guitar finishers. My friend (and favorite guitar builder and finisher) Kim Walker has told me that the finish accounts for up to 1/3 of guitar tone. Makes sense to me. I've been to numerous guitar shows where many (most?) makers use the same finisher. And, yeah, the guitars, despite build differences, sound astonishingly similar.

Nick's the real deal, in building, which should include finishing.

Please bring this guitar to the Artisan show.
