While the body has been shipped to Tony,
there is nothing about the neck that is phony.
It looks pretty nice with just the filler,
and in the end is sure to look killer!

Ryan is concentrating that much you can tell,
Must be hammering loudly, wearing his ears so well.
We went with EVO gold as it is tough to beat,
And thought it may match the red in the mesquite.

When you're doing the neck,
I would only use Evo gold fret.

And when the work is being done by Ryan,
You know the guitar will be high-end!

Because of all the guitars that I hold,
There's none that compare to gold!

Looks like a really nice guitar Tom with a tip of the hat to those gorgeous Texas bluebonnets....nice touch! Should be an awesome guitar. Two great guitar guys working on this makes it really predictable. I've heard that your guitar wall is a beauty to behold. This one should be a nice addition

I agree with you 100 percent,
and I thank you for your 2 cents.

Yes, to everything you said,
the guitar wall is quite nice, some greys, browns, and reds!
Of course the guitars hanging there are truly quite fine,
I worked hard to get them and am proud they are mine.

???? I don't know where,
Is it here or is it there?
The back grain looks straight to me,
Or in the fret board is it you see?

I’ve looked and looked, and looked times three
To see if I could find,
A Bulldog looking back at me—
I guess I must be blind.

It isn’t here, it isn’t there,
I’ve searched it all around!
I might have seen a Terrier,
But Bulldogs can’t be found.

You are a rhymer it's plain to see,
And I'm with you, no bulldog for me.
Any news from Tony I might ask,
I am anxious to see if he gets the color we tasked!

Smile Dang this is pretty…

Dang this is pretty, and you all are so witty!

Beautiful pictures, and clever rhymes, have made this thread a real fun time!

Can’t wait to see it back from Tony…

Way to go gentlemen

Tom, our new builds are hanging out at Tony’s together.

Whee!

Paul

Yes, they are both there,
waiting patiently tortoise not the hare.
We both know they are worth the wait,
A beauty makeover is their fate!

Actually there are quite a few
As my student build is at Tony's too.
Bob's Macassar is now there as well
So now it's just time to wait for a spell...

Oh yes, how could I forget the Nemo build,
Tony's space must be filled
With guitars from east Texas,
all made to be the bestist!*


*unlike this last rhyme!
