He’s also incredibly creative and loves tweaking his aesthetic designs. One of these days he’s going to build a Super Meridian for me . . . I think I put my deposit down in 2011? Ha ha.

I presume you've seen Jenn's??

Kenny - warm congrats on acquiring that guitar. I bought Mike's first Meridian which was also black coco and blue spruce, but sold it a few years ago (which I now regret!!). And I've known of two others - I remember watching that one built - there's probably a build thread in the archives.

In addition to the bloom of the coco, I think you'll find that the Blue Spruce produces amazing "tinkling" highs, and the full recipe - tone, playability, and visual aesthetic - is spectacular!

Best,
Phil
