I love the artistry on the first one of course, but that last one is definitely my favorite.

Can't wait to see these at Woodstock and finally meet the Kinnaird brothers face to face!

Thanks Tom.
I wish I could take these to Woodstock. I promised them to the owners before I go. But, To quote Yoda, there are others.

All the black coloring inside the scrimshaw cavities dissolve in the epoxie. The epoxie filled the cavities making for an unrecoverable mess. I had to scrape down to the bone (so to speak) and send it back for a do over. (Which was not free . )
You learnt something...it's now scrimshawed into your brain. This is the price of being a custom builder I suppose.

John, Nice work . I wish I was going to be able to be at the woodstock show. It sounds like a ton of tun, and of course I would love to "sample" a few of yours. In my opinion, your guitars are only getting better visually and tonally.
