Beautiful as always! I got to play Cotton's McNight last week and it is absolutely awesome in every way. I can only imagine how this will sound. Congrats to the new owner.

My new guitar from Tim & Mary is as exceptional as the pics indicate. The " fit & finish" is beyond reproach and Tim has provided the guitar with a rich and pleasing voice. They were very easy to work with and I can't recommend their work more highly.

Thanks Tim & Mary!

Had a chance to hear this guitar when I was picking up my McKnight (sister guitars) a few weeks back. As good as the ziricote looks, the guitar matches it in tone -- which seems to be a pattern with McKnight six-stringers.

Funny, how it works that way...

Got to love the Ziricote...great choice. I've be doing a "what if" game for my McKnight, Tim wanted to build it Multi-scale and I got all conservative on him. LOL. I kinda wish I had considered it more.

Great job Tim and Mary.

Just plain "W O W!" That is one beautiful guitar, Tim & Mary! Of course, I may be just a tad prejudiced about the wood combination (my AGF Award McKnight guitar is Carpathian and Zircote) but I honestly believe it makes for one of the most visually stunning guitars ever.

Not that this guitar is all about looks though. A pretty guitar that doesn't sound good is little more than a decoration. I know from first hand experience with Tim's work that does indeed sound good. No, great! Full and rich, beautifully balanced and very responsive to a wide range of expressive playing styles. Though I haven't played this one, I am honored to own its cousin!

Another beauty, Tim. I like the simple purfling line between the sides and the binding.

Great job Tim and Mary.

Another McKnight customer's multi-scale was just in Guitar Bench magazine. The multi-scale is becoming more popular. Did you see this link?
