Paul,
The guitar looks great. Love that rosette wood. I'm sure the finish is great from Joe, too.

Man....you must have had a great teacher! Just kidding. I'm a strong believer that the student has as much or more to do with success than the teacher in many cases.

Great job,
Kevin Gallagher/Omega Guitars

Kevin... you should almost get equal billing on this guitar as so much of it came from you. Thanks for getting us started down this road - and for providing the items we needed as we got our shop set up!

For those of you who don't know, Kyle and I took a one week class from Kevin last May and I truly believe it put us about a year or two down the road of experience.

That guitar looks great, congratulations! I hope you'll post pics of the next ones too?

How's she sounding?

Fliss... I'm quite happy with the sound for a small body guitar. It is a lot louder than I thought it would be.

As a perfectionist and tinkerer I may do some sanding on the tone bar braces to see if I can coax even a little more from her.

I have a friend who is interested in her - and I'd be happy to have him own her just the way she sounds now. However - I think she has a little more in her

Going home an playing that guitar last night was definitely an awesome experience. Very cool to play something that you just built. I am sure we will be posting pictures soon of the next guitars.

Thank you Hann,

I'm glad you like the logo. It is always such a subjective thing.

Hey Paul I'm genuinely envious....you're doing one of the few things that I'd like to accomplish at some point in my life (learning to craft guitars is right up there with learning to pilot a plane, and some other things in my "bucket list") ...Great job..Aloha,

Hen

Well - it's been quite a while since I posted any updates on the progress of this guitar and I need to get some new photos up here.

But I wanted anyone following this thread to know that we started another guitar over the winter and are putting together a thread about it - with photos.

This guitar design and execution was mostly done by my son. We call this guitar #004

Here's the thread: http://www.acousticguitarforum.com/f...d.php?t=151982
