Back in the Saddle
I've been down sick for the past couple weeks. I'm back in the saddle now. It's great to be back in the shop!
Here is the mostly Snakewood fretboard I'm making for Dustin's grand auditorium: m

Euro/Maple has always been on my mind...in the right hands the voice is incredible. Hope to hear sound clips of that one when it is done. Bet you're having a blast in the shop, Mark!

Here is my logo chip on this one: One of the things like like about using wood logos is it gives me the opportunity to find a small sample of wood that matches up nicely with the guitar and also represents in a small way some of the current woods I have coming through my studio. This chip is from the behemoth old growth Sugar Maple I found on my property: Which had this burl in one of the old broken off branches: Which I sliced up and got a large variety of grain and colors to choose just the right piece to go with this guitar: m

Mark, that’s lovely. What a rewarding use of that insanely-colored wood! Down here our blue pine is very pale by comparison.
