Default Taking your guitar to B.I.G.(er)? *****CANCELLED******

It would be cool to see photos of guitars that are coming to this year's B.I.G. I'll start out with my new Hatcher Woodsman, which should be ready just in time:



Since it's not quite finished yet, here's a shot of the first Woodsman that Mark built (mine will look almost identical):



Mine has very dark Brazilian rosewood for the fretboard, bridge, and binding, instead of ebony; and it will have fretboard markers because I need all the help I can get.

Thanks to anyone who cares to share here!

Stan

Default Ariel

Here are the pics of Ariel, my Wilborn Arum which I'll be bringing with me to BIG(er)...








Really looking forward seeing all the luthiers, AGFers, and the beautiful guitars that will be on display. See y'all soon!

This would be a cool place for the participating luthiers to post completed builds too - you know, the guitars (and amps) actually for sale at this shin-dig!

Thanks Dennis and Kevin for sharing with us here. I hope more will do the same!

Stan, I'm still deciding what to bring, but when I do, I'll post. Might be the morning I leave, LOL.

I will be bringing my new Hatcher Josie Small Jumbo with Alpine Moon Spruce Top and The Fiddleback Mahogany Tree back and sides (photos by Mark Hatcher):



Maybe one more if I have room after packing up the car with provisions. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making some new ones.

Tom, how many guitars are you taking delivery on during your party? One Taran, one Wilborn, I know. Aren't you getting a Kostal too, or do you already have that? We would love to see pics of your recent J. Kinnaird here, unless you plan on keeping that one hidden away.

Stan

Haha, the Wilborn and the Taran, no Kostal, that would be grounds for divorce and not Kathy divorcing me, I would divorce myself over that one!!! The two builds at one time was also not planned, but it just sort of worked out that way.

Perhaps you mean this guitar:
