Build the neck, apply eight or so coats of oil based juice, and then assemble and string the Cuban mahogany FT-0C! That's early March, just in time for the B.I.G.(er) delivery.

Customer Walter Strauss brought his guitar in today for minor tweaking, and noticing that it too is an example of Pernambuco bound with Camatillo and having maple purfling, I thought you might like to see what that can look like after 13 years of use. This is a JB-16, a big asymmetrical acoustic. If you haven't heard Walter play, check him out!

Absolutely. Get her tuned up and play us a sample!

When Walter Strauss came to pick up his guitar this afternoon he agreed to let me video him playing the recent Penngrove I will be bringing to B.I.G.(er). This is my out of date iPhone at work, and I uploaded it to Vimeo. Let's see what happens:

People asked to see Walter play w/o a capo at the 6th fret, and here he does so, though it may not be quite what "they" were hoping for! Walter is a virtuoso, but not exactly mainstream.
