Congrats Colins!
Great threat. Fabulous looking guitar. Really love the colour scheme and the that dyed blue binding. Outstanding. And the photos with the car - wow! Stunning! And for where you can't hang then guitar on the wall, they'd look great! Enjoy! Best, Dan

Thanks guys
Really enjoying having a 00 (this is my first) for the feel of it and the immediacy of the sound. And very glad we went with the deeper body to give a little extra oomph. |

Build thread – Baranik 00 in blue spruce and koa
As others have said; this was a really fun build to follow, and that is an incredibly beautiful guitar! Do you find the tone spectrum much different than your CX models from Mike?

The tone is very similar. Mike’s acoustics all have a distinctive sound, which is then nuanced by body size, woods etc. I can’t do a complete comparison yet as the CXs are over ten years old and have really settled into their sound. The 00 is still a youngster. But a couple of things I am noticing are the 00 having a slightly faster attack (small body volume?) and that it does not to lose any bass relative the CXs. The sensitivity is there, i.e. full tone even at low volumes. I am also hearing a bit more sustain in the 00. The wenge double sides may help with this but it could also be Mike’s growth/change as a builder since he made my CXs. In summary, they are all pretty amazing guitars! |

This is an amazing build. Very very progressive in design elements which makes the guitar special in many ways. That entire headstock with the tuner buttons is spectacular. Is the top purfling also burl+resin?

As with the headstock and the rosette, it is really nice to look at up close. |

Just had a great few moments re-viewing the guitar, Col. Very happy it's continuing to please you and "snuggle" in to the collection!!
Best, Phil |

I really must get around to putting the little "You are here" arrow on the headstock!
