Thanks, Jon. I really am excited. Got some cool inlays working for the fingerboard and headstock overlay. Will come together soon.

BTW....the clips you posted from your build sounded incredible! Crazy sustain and very clear. Pretty good playin' to boot!!

Look forward to seeing the inlays. Thanks for the kind comments about the sound clips.

I can't get over how amazing that ziricote looks! And I also love the tight-grained redwood.

Me too, Jon! I just didn't see how awesome it was going to look but Mr. Taylor and the folks on this forum who build these guitars are like stink in' magicians. Definitely blessed!

That is one very cool and beautiful guitar. I agree with Jon, that Ziricote is mesmerizing. Fun to see this all coming together!

Default A Few New Photos. Ebony Fingerboard and Headstock







My signature model! Actually Ive had two guitars stolen in my lifetime. A thief will have some difficulty explaining things if they take this one! Plus it came out very clean and I love it.

Gorgeous guitar. You have a very neat and legible signature - mine wouldn't do much as a theft deterrent. "See officer, there's my signature...Mssrt...Blrgt..."

Beautiful work, keep it up.Great signature detail.
Really glad you are putting in photos too.

HAHA...it took me a few tries to get a good, legible signature. Really happy with this guitar asthetically. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

Thanks for the kind words. The wood combo turned out to be a great choice asthetically. Mr. Taylor is doing some fine work! I would absolutely recommend folks look into him for a custom build. Feel free to ask me any questions you'd like also if you want some feedback.

I will post some final pics when it is complete and also some sound clips. Hopefully very soon!
