Wow! Thanks for updating us on this wonderful guitar build. It is looking fabulous. I love your aesthetic choices on this one. I am bummed that I will not be in Santa Barbara to play it in person. I sure appreciate you taking the time to contribute here so I can get an experience of your work.
Best, Jayne

Here's a couple more photos before she heads off to the spray booth. The finishing process is very rewarding for me. I have always done my own finishing. Recently, my finishing process has become less cumbersome thanks to my dear friend Joe White. He has been very gracious and helpful...Thanks Joe!
 Sorry bout the focus issue on this one...I need a new camera!   Now Playing...Michael Whalen "My Secret Heart" A must hear for piano lovers!

What a fabulous instrument! This one gets my vote as the most visually appealing guitar I've seen on the forum in a long while (which in no way denigrates any of the other amazing instruments featured hereabouts!).

It's lovely. The spalted maple looks excellent. Makes me want to buy tickets last minute for SBAIC...
