Thanks guys - on my lap right now. I was shooting for a particular sound with this one and Bill (and I
 ) nailed it. The slightly more shallow than his standard body depth seemed to make a big difference to my ear. This is hard to tell, of course, unless you have two guitars of the same woods and differing depths right next to each other - but my ear tends to like guitars no deeper than 4 1/8 or so at the tail.It's more beautiful in person than the pics show. I also have some recording gear again, so maybe I can get something together in the next few days there too....I couldn't be happier with the way this happened and turned out!!   Hard to capture the beauty of the bearlcaw in person....  had to resort to incandescent light to got it to show up like it should...  Uploaded with ImageShack.us  Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Glad to hear she's safely home, Todd. Thanks for the additional pictures. Just a gorgeous guitar in every respect. Glad the decreased body depth had the results you were after. Please do record something if possible...I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to hear her sing
