David,
The way you matched the grain on your end graft is absolutely stunning. Great work as always.

Uh-huh. No one is that lucky David.
I suspect elves creeping into the shop late at night.

In his beautifully appointed shop under the Misty Mountains (of Brighton), Trevor has a hoard of many precious guitars!

Sounds like you've just found the One Guitar to Rule Them All though Trevor... what a beauty
