This is probably what many of you have been waiting for - a splash of colour!

Right???? This is one of my more exciting times as a dealer, to receive a beauty like this. To make things even more exciting, I've just received an update that the guitar is already in Singapore! I would probably be expecting it at my doorstep any day now

Haha! It is pretty sweet. The guitar arrived just yesterday and I have to say that it looks even better than it does in photos. And it sounds absolutely incredible. I've not played many good Cedar guitars and I guess there is a reason why the Olson camp is well known for their Cedar SJ! More on the sound in future installments. Photos first - here is sneak peek of the finished guitar!

Marcus has sent to me a rough handphone taken sound clip of thus guitar and the clip sounds good indeed. I was surprised it was sapele in fact since it was not lacking in overtones nor reverb.
