Inbound from Ireland!!! - Now with teaser photos!!!
Got a note from Sean yesterday morning with tracking information that my new X20 Artisan "Woody"custom guitar is on it's way to me here in Texas. Oh, the waiting............I'm guessing it will arrive here by Thursday or Friday.
I chose the quilted maple veneer for mine and a green with a little blue in the center coloration on the guitar. I chose the green because I'm 2nd generation Irish, and added the blue after seeing a pic of another guitar that Emerald made this way. The two tone color reminded me of the water in Lake Tahoe, which is where my wife and I were married 12 years ago. Excited is an understatement at this point..........!!!

That is sweet Jim! I'm not a fan of fretmarkers on CF guitars, but I do like the single Celtic knot. Nice touch.

Really really cool the way the green fades into the blue or the blue transforms to green depending on how you look at it! Great!
