Congrats Dave! You are doing so much for the community by proudly embracing GAS, making it easier for us to go to our spouses and say "but look Honey, Dave has two new Brondels, surely it is reasonable and not-at-all obsessive for me to get ONE more guitar...or three...". Rock on, brother! BEAUTIFUL BRW, as usual. I love all things snakewood.

Looks like your fretboard is inlaid with either Rolaids or Altoids.

Oh yea, those are Altoids, and Laurent had Burton LeGeyt custom mill them down to size and coat them in a phosphorescent epoxy so they glow in the dark...
