Few more pics. We started to buff out the guitar yesterday. Neck is done. IMG_1047.jpgIMG_1036.jpgIMG_1037.jpgIMG_1057.jpgIMG_1055.jpg

Best thing is I talked my Dad into another one! One that’s more his design than mine. We picked woods last night. Should be fun.

Thanks for looking.

It sure is, and beautifully executed. I love the multi-colored backstrip, and very much a fan of wood binding.

Thanks so much for the kind words. Bill and I hung out on the porch together today and played some with the new guitar. We are both tickled.
