Hey, I recognize those. Looks like they haven’t been opened since I saw them.

What Steve did the Saturday before La Conner. I'm in the queue.

Congrats to you!!! You will not be sorry. What is the back and side wood?

Excellent! How exciting for you! I'll be interested to see how your new guitar takes shape.

It's Guatemalan rosewood, Tom. Steve showed me stacks of spectacular rosewoods and similar woods, but this set had the tap tone that really moved me. The hue of the lighter parts of the rosewood looked very close to that of the redwood top - I think it will be a subtle but pleasing effect, bound with a dark brown Amazon rosewood.

Nice! So tell us, what model is Steve building for you?

His fingerstyle (FS), 12 fret with a cutaway. Since I wanted another guitar specifically for fingerstyle, it seemed the logical choice, but it was actually a tough decision.

I don't mean to hijack Ryan's thread - my time will come. Hopefully he'll take time to post some photos!

No worries Stan. Hijack away when you want to get excited about your new Kinnaird coming.

May 10: La Conner Washington. You’re not here, but you should be.

I'll be there in the AM, I'll stop by to check out your guitars...

nacluth · #**190** 05-10-2018, 11:09 PM

Look forward to meeting you!

cigarfan · #**191** 05-11-2018, 02:48 AM

Looks peaceful! Have fun guys. Much success!

Hey, that looks like a great turnout, on a Friday no less. Saturday I would think would be even better!

nacluth · #**194** 05-11-2018, 04:41 PM

Pretty good Friday. Lots of local traffic with a decent smattering of people that have traveled just for this. With a beautiful weekend in the forecast, it’s the place to be.

TuckerRE · #**195** 05-11-2018, 05:22 PM

We want to see photos of you guys and your booth, oh yes, and your guitars!
