For me, they'd be just like raising puppies...I could never let any of them go.
Thank you F4F. I do have a few guitars stashed away. I really don’t have much time to play guitar. Too busy building and whittling down my honey do list. I suppose like a good dog breeder, I’m happy to place these pups in a good home.

Yup, your purfling turned out quite nicely. I like the Coco spacers in there. Natural colors are the perfect support for the splashes of green.

Thanks Nemoman. I’m anxious to get this strung up and see what it can do.

Thanks Paul.
I enjoy it when a customer opts for something different, as I'm sure you know.

It's beautiful. The appointments are bold, yet classy, if that makes sense.

What did you decide for a name for these? Or is this one and done?

Why thanks sir
It's an anti-dreadnaught so I think I might call it the Skiff.

You don’t think that would be too reminiscent of a Robin Hood character? He was anything but little if I remember correctly.

Actually ma'am, but that's ok.

Again, a work of art!

Well shoot. I do apologize for being so inattentive to important details.
And thanks again.

Actually, it's the Robin Hood Little John that makes me think it's a good name for your guitar. Just as he was little only in name, your guitar will be little only in name and physical dimensions. It will be as large in tone as he was in size.
