VERY impressive. Ornate but tasteful, a difficult combination to get right.

Cheers,
Steve

Thoroughly enjoyed the pics and development of the build.

Jason designs a different end-piece ornamentation for each guitar? I love all the designs I've seen so far... classy.

So, Steve's is next... ?

what did he say about my guitar? so excited to hear! I'm going with an old school FRAP and maybe some kind of internal mic. definitely a dual source. just have to figure out which two!

Hello, Eric! Jason noted how great of a time he and Catherine had initially talking about your guitar, and then you coming out to select the perfect piece of brazilian. He also noted that he designed the end wedge decoration with your having a pick-up in mind. You have a beautiful guitar going here, and I loved what I heard when Michael Watts played his guitar and a Koa OM at Healdsburg. Amazing! I'm loving your guitar! Jason is sure building some great sounding (and looking) guitars. Guess it's my turn.

are you going to commission?

Billy Boy · #**116** 08-22-2011, 10:50 PM

Jason and I have already started talking and building some specs together. I should be able to tell you more soon. What an amazing guy to talk with about a guitar build. Amazing!

I think most luthiers you sit down and chat with are amazing guys. but with Jason, I feel like he really gets me. Sometimes when I talk to him, I feel like I'm talking to myself. Throw Catherine in and my wife, and now you have a party

So who's coming to Woodstock?

ericcsong · #**118** 08-25-2011, 10:35 AM

from Jason:

"Your guitar is coming along beautifully well. It received its first lacquer coat on Monday and received pore filler and two additional coats yesterday."

so excited!

I can't wait to see Jason and his guitars again at woodstock, I wish I could afford to commission a guitar from Jason, but his helpful advice on building will do
