Default Neck carve fully shaped
The highly flamed koa back plate is from the leftovers from the back and sides of my OM build a couple of years ago.

Great connection, and nice to see a builder who doesn't throw stuff out! (I have two builds by one luthier too, and the second build has trim in walnut left over from the first build.)

Any delivery date yet?

The build is now complete - I have yet to collect the guitar in which I am very excited to. I will share my thoughts as soon as I have had a chance to enjoy it. I will update this thread in a few months time. Thank you everyone who has kindly followed this short build thread.
