A few updated pics
Here are a few quick pics of the 00-13. I've set the neck and installed the bridge since I took these, but haven't had a chance to take any pics yet. Strings will go on later this week, then a few final adjustments before she gets shipped out. I generally like to keep a finished guitar at least 2-3 weeks and tweek the action one last time before shipment.
I'll post some pics when everything is done. I have high expectations for this one. I did an OM with these same woods (consecutive cuts on both top and back) and it was outstanding. Hoping for similar results on this one. |

Updated pics (Lots of pics)
This one is just about done and it's been a really fun build. Great client who gave me a lot of flexibility and that really makes a difference. The strings went on yesterday and I've been putting it through it's paces all day. I love the tone of the Amazon/Lutz combination. For those who are considering a BRW guitar, but just can't get past the cost, Amazon Rosewood to me is as close as you'll come.
Thanks for looking. Last edited by Jimmy Caldwell; 04-01-2012 at 07:46 PM. |

Thanks for the looks, Jimmy. Are you going to stick with the new H/S logo? I would. Very distinctive....

New Headstock Logo
I was a little apprehensive at first, but after seeing under finish on the last two I really like it. I think it's a keeper.

Great looking instrument! I've been really impressed with lutz spruce; tonally and aesthetically.

Yeah, sorry I didn't get back to you on that logo Q.
It looks great, and is an interesting counterbalance to the stamp on the rear of headstock. It says, "I didn't come out of Nazareth". Steve |
