Nothing but positive vibes on this one. I get my Omega-wood + Pinkham magic on August second. We should have a coming out party for all of the Omega+ guitars out there. I'll host in Lancaster, PA in the fall. Any takers?

That headstock design is the coolest I've ever seen. Beautiful job incorporating both logos. I should also mention I love that body. Ziricote is my favorite tonewood (aesthetically speaking). I also like the incorporation of the sapwood... very classy. Look forward to seeing this one completed.

I haven't been here in ages and just stumbled on this thread. That's looking beautiful, Bruce!! Having heard about and lived thru some of the travails of this guitar I am so excited to see that the wood will live as it was supposed to, making music. I haven't put mine down since Frank Finocchio brought it to life back in April. It's a very special guitar.

Up date:

Picked up the guitar from Paul Woolson mid last week. Paul did excellent work finishing the Omega and is a great guy too, can't thank him enough.

The guitar has a very balanced and doesn't seem like it will need to open up as they say.

Unfortunately I will be putting it on the market because the old fingers don't do what I want them to do, my callouses are gone and my interest has changed back to bike riding now that I have my new hip. Besides that someone else can make this sound a whole lot better than me.

Enjoy:













Paul had to make a new neck.
