Interesting, trying to make a perfect guitar better eh. The one thing that shocked me about Nick's guitars was how much their tone matures and changes over the first six months of playing it. I would not have thought it possible to hear such change. So It will be interesting to see if you have that same experience. Especially the base, which got much deeper across that first six months.
Yes, a cutaway made by Nick would be fun.

I will be curious to hear how this guitar sounds. The 50-year old German Spruce should be superlative. Thd OMC is 5/8” bigger across the lower bout than Nick’s OM to make up for the lost body volume of the cutaway. This set of Cuban Mahogany is much denser than most HOG.
I should get to sample it by Christmas...  |
