Well, Jimi does some amazing work, as well! I forgot to mention, one thing I knew this guitar HAD to have was a bee as the focal point. (Beekeeping is my other main hobby.) I love the detail- especially the wings. And I definitely agree on that last statement!

Yes, I’m sure this amount of “bling” is not for everyone. I actually ended up asking Larry to dial it down quite a bit (from his first drawing). The first one spanned the entire fretboard. I definitely love how it turned out.

I don’t have any fancy recording gear, but I plan on recording this one- I don’t think my iPhone would properly capture the sound, but I could try and see how that works out.

Thanks, Jayne. It really does sound amazing. When I first played it, I was nearly speechless- I kept pausing to say “Wow.” I probably did that about 6 or 8 times in a row. I was just absolutely floored by the tone and the projection.

Yes, they’re exactly as you say. I ordered a wall case from Acoustic Remedy, so I can be sure it’s humidified properly. It will be a beautiful piece of wall art, when I’m not playing it.

Incredible guitar Molly. Congrats!
I sure know what you mean by rabbit-hole deciding on extras. It is so nice when these luthiers (who become friends) bend over backwards to make your wishes come true. And Larry is a masterful artist. I have a fretboard by him which astounds every time I look at it.
