That must be the best example of the tree I've ever seen. It really is hard to believe it's flat. And perfectly bookmatched. Are you sure you didn't photograph half of it and flip the photo ?

I can see all kinds of pictures in this wood from a Budda to a woodpecker!

Yes it is hard to believe it is flat, even when you're holding it in your hands.

Thanks for commenting Dave. This set is ridiculously well matched. Here is another picture to help prove the match is not some sort of trickery!:



The top is no slacker either:



Thanks for viewing!

If that isn't the loveliest guitar I've ever seen, I can't think of what was. It's breathtaking

That top looks like the surface of a lake with a little wind causing gentle ripples on it...

Beautiful guitar Mark. I want to know how you do that lacy inlay. And what is that material anyway?
