Congratulations on your new Froggy...

Lovely guitar!

For those who may have not noticed, this build uses a rosewood bridge plate in lieu of a "must-have" maple bridge plate that many on these guitar forums insist on.

You might change your mind once you spin them, smooth and effortless compared to Waverly's.

Beautiful guitar! I really like that Florentine cutaway and the flamed binding!

Thanks gents. The wakeup at 4:30a this morning and get my first early morning session was really nice. I always enjoy playing early in the morning with rested ears.

Congrats on the new Froggy Bob! It's a beauty.

I just got my new H-12 Add/EIR last month and I'm absolutely blown away by how great it sounds. Can't stop playing it. I'd say all is well at Froggy Bottom with Andy and Eric taking the reins!

Fantastic! Wow, that is such a clean build pic of the interior. Congrats and enjoy!

Congratulations!

That’s a beauty Bob, congratulations. Interesting about the strings.

Thanks Peter. I think the lighter gauge strings are easier to play to the degree it allows me to get more out of them and play more accurately so I can be more in the moment with the guitar. If part of my playing experience is pushing back against the string tension, it can be distracting. And it makes more sense for someone like me who started playing 8 years ago.

Yes, makes sense. And those Plectrum heavier bass strings are quite a handful...
