New Froggy -- completed
Michael just sent this first picture of my Froggy K. The back shown is English Walnut that came from a centennial tree in Pennsylvania. It's been 9 months since I placed the order, really not bad. He is a great person to work with. NGD soon.

Oh my. I've been entertaining the idea of another Froggy. This thread just might push me over into the deep end.

Wow, that's beautiful. "Tadpole"--very cute. Pretty soon it will grow legs and eventually get to your door!

Nice to see a build thread over here, esp. for a Froggy. A big K with walnut will be an exciting guitar to play!! Looking forward to more pics and info.
