Totally get what you feel. I felt the same way with my Lowden F35 Redwood/Koa. Its my dream guitar. Enjoy yours to the max. How can you not?

Love the psychedelic looking back. Have you owned a redwood or cedar topped guitar in the past?

Photos, video, audio.... now that's an NGD done right! Congrats. The guitar sounds fantastic and your playing on the recording was very nice. Well done!

Thank you all for your nice words about my new guitar. It does help being a pro photographer when it comes to taking shots and video too, so it is cheating a little bit. I have had some beautiful guitars in my time, even some hand made to order by a top luthier, but nothing compares to this instrument for me. When i first played it, the feel was as easy and smooth as an electric and with an incredibly well balanced tone. It is so responsive and full it just spoke to me and i had to have it. Thats what compelled me to photograph it and put it on here, it felt a bit like bragging to me but i just had to tell someone who would get it. Thank you all again, Matthew.

Hi David, Wolfram Slides Thank you for your comments and sure, do get in touch if you have a music related project to photograph. I always enjoy combining the two, i recently started shooting for Sontronics Microphones which i fell in love with myself first then we got chatting. here is a link to that project : http://www.mspstudio.co.uk/portfolio...cs-microphone/

Utilising your hard earned skills is not cheating. Nice to see pictures that do the guitar justice. I'm a keen amateur photographer myself and have had chances to try and work with studio lights - and I know how complex a skillset it is. Beautiful guitar, beautifully presented

Nice!
It sounds almost like Sitar at around 1:50.
