Very Nice Rod.

I see the Olsonish influence on that bridge, don't I?

She is great looking, how 'bout a clip of What a Day?

Or one of his newest, "Water Day".

Congrats man, jealous - absolutely!

PS.. IF that's a GLO, I'll eat this green apple!

Thank you all, I know it looks pretty good but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to record it to give you a taste of it's true beauty.

Yes, a truss rod cover is definatly in order. I want to do one of those screwless type that Bob Long makes, either with a magnet or eraser to hold it in place.

So, if anyone can help me out with recording it I'll get the validation song up (but my playing isn't so great, not as bad as my singing mind you so maybe we'll be ok). I have a Samson C01U condensor mic that I can use to plug into my computer but I have no idea what software to use to record



Help please.

Rod I have the same mic and it works well. Position the mic about 3" forward of the sound hole and about 6-8" from the guitar for best results.

Download Audacity (Mac or PC (primitive computer......)) and there is an add-on for Audacity that will convert the files to MP3 but I am forgetting the name of the add on.

If you remember the recordings of Bach (Smoke On The River Rhine) that I sent you guys I used this exact set-up.........

The add-on is called Lame for Audacity - all is free.

Certainly looks like it was worth the wait Rod.

Lovely workmanship and very tastefully appointed.

Bob

Really sweet, Rod.
I like the way you've got the reddish part of the maple adjoining the cedar. Little thing, I know, but I like it.

Rod, redwood looks nice against the maple! Nicely thought out appointments. Clinton
