Wow! That is a beautiful custom creation. I am really looking forward to Evan's reaction when he has it in his hands. I think you folks have made his dream guitar come to life. Kudos!

What a stunning instrument. I was wondering how that sound hole would come out with a thin body.

Try doing that with a wood guitar

Chloe;

Thank you very much--I am not a picture taker so appreciate the beautiful shots and your effort in getting them on line. And you are welcome for your mastermind role in the Emerald mystery.

And The Rest OF You;

Thank you for your abiding support through the conception and build of this guitar. You gave me information beyond my mind bank and helped determine things like scale and gave me the encouragement to continue with the project. Muchas gracias.
