Great looking work, "In the White" I like everything about guitar building up to this stage. Everything after this is mostly one big PITA. Hopefully not for everyone

Bruce,

Tom's work is amazing. So clean, so precise. And beautiful. Look forward to hearing this, as I do with any Doerr.

Very cool! Would also love to hear clips. I like the idea of a modified DN with a cutaway as an all around guitar. I was also interested in EIR or something since I already have 2 Brazilian rosewood acoustics, which are killer, but not something I'm always comfortable lugging around.

Also, do these use the same case as a regular dreadnought?

Guitar came back from finish last week and Tom is gluing the bridge on. I'm excited to likely be getting it within a few weeks here! I've been playing my Swiss Brazilian 2019 Doerr Mod D quite a bit lately, what a guitar!!!!!!!
