As much as I'm liking the look of the Honduran, the character of "Dad's Sitka" is doing it for me on this build. The two are blending well together, very synergistic and they both will look great under finish.

Ok, I am open to a lot on interpretations, I have been known to see a lot of strange things in wood grains etc, but salad? You have me thinking about that one haha... Any particular dressing you would like to pair with it?

Thanks very much. I agree, with the age of that sitka it has taken on some color changes naturally and does have a lot of character. I also know that Ben has gotten a kick out of the fact that the AGF has kinda named it "Dad's Sitka". Along with the character, Ben is absolutely resolute in the sound characteristics as well!

Ahh, that sounds good. I like cobb salads, lots of stuff on it, neat little rows, I have never tapped one, but maybe next time.

Add me to the fan list . I LOVE coco binding. As much as I love it, I don't have one single guitar WITH it . Tom, this guitar is going to look just fabulous...clean and classy.

Here is a video Ben did yesterday involving a couple of very nice guitars. So much debate on wood types on the AGF affecting sound. These are the same models, built with the same style of bracing, and built almost back to back, but with different woods. See what you think. https://www.facebook.com/WilbornGuit...1832412828459/ If anyone knows how to embed this video from facebook, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I think I heard them the way Ben did... I've always loved the sound of redwood and cedar topped guitars, so that's what I gravitate toward, but they both sound amazing! If I was in a sinking ship, I'd use the two cases as life rafts so I could save both! You need some variety on a desert island!
