Hi, Folks
We've got a bespoke build going on with Drew in the current batch. Some new aesthetic appointments were ordered for this build.
Hopefully, this thread can help folks who plan to commission a Heinonen SJ.
The client got a great impression of Drew's work after he tested the Cedar/Cocobolo SJ at our showroom.
He re-visited a few times and decided to go for a Cedar/Indian RW SJ. The client has no doubt about the tone then he tried to achieve a specific look for this SJ.
Here is the spec we nailed together for this build.

Top - Western Red Cedar
B/S - East Indian Rosewood
Rosette - Radial Wood Rosette (Cocobolo)
Backstrip - Wood Accent (Cocobolo)
