Hi all! Thanks for the comments! A couple of specific responses below:

German/Madi is such a good combo and the combination of John's magic must make it incredible. I'd suggest you to get another Circa, but I'm afraid your wife is going to put a hit on me if I do so... |

Blonde, Blondie, Blondie! Awesome looking. Wish I could trust Maple but just haven’t had any luck. Those I’ve owned have recorded nicely but didn’t have the performing characteristics I needed.
Anyway Congrats!!! Play it in good health.

What a deep insight to ask him to build it as if it were going to be his guitar. Allows him to take things where he wants them to go, and probably realizes the fullest potential of the build. If I ever get another guitar made, I may do the same ...

I’ll probably opt for German spruce since that was on the 000-12 I fell for. Although I love adi, I don’t want to rock the boat.

WoW! Congrats! My000-12 is on his new batch and so tempting to change the spec~ HaHa may be next time though... I’ve been a big fan of his maple guitars. I haven’t heard any Adi/Maple Circa sound samples yet. Any chance working on sound samples?

John posted those pics on Facebook, I didn't know you were the happy owner! Honestly it's one of the most elegant and beautiful maple guitar I've seen, and I'm pretty sure it sounds incredible! Maple can be such a wonderful tonewood IMO even if it's often underrated. Honestly it's a real canon, the rosace, binding, and tuners are beautiful also, may I ask how much he charges for such a beauty? (if indiscreet you may pm me) Anyway congratulations, this is really fueling my GAS !

When a buddy of mine would see a particularly beautiful blonde maple guitar he'd say "Now there's a blonde that could make a bishop kick over a gravestone!" ... very applicable in this case.

Maple Goodness
Amazing looking guitar. Congratulations!
I do believe that Stuart Ryan has been recently playing a Circa 000 12 maple back as his main guitar. You should check it out for added sound samples. Cheers, Tom |

How is this OM developing these days? One of my clients is working on the final decision. Originally He was going to go with a Straight grain Cocobolo OM with 28-style. Since he has 2BRW and 1 EIRW guitar so he now wants something different. Have you recorded any sound samples?

Yo! Sorry for not responding earlier. I don't have any sound clips that would do this guitar any justice. I'm happy to hear that your client with the Adi/Maple combo! I love the fact they went with a maple neck too! I know a lot of John's maple guitars are topped with German, but I really dig the Adi pairing. It's got a nice rumble and growl. John loves working with maple and you can definitely hear it. I'm super, super confident your client's OM28 is gonna rock!!!!!
