Thanks to Dave Fifield for turning my vision into a reality! He made these mahogany labels with his laser. I couldn't be happier, and I'm excited to see how the small design touch works out in my next guitar!

I don't recall seeing a wooden label before. I love it! Did you just use mahogany veneer?

Thanks everybody!

Filippo, I believe there are twenty in mahogany and twenty in cedar. Zero guitars awaiting them, but one in progress. :) You should see how frequently I print things just to see them on paper. Sometimes I just have to have things in hand to really see them. It's not the most efficient process, but it's the one that helps me make the best choices.

Glad you like them James! :) Thanks all for your kind words - actually, they are really quite easy to make - the hard part is generating good artwork, which James had covered in this case.

They will be in the mail to you tomorrow James.

If anyone else has any needs or wants in this area (labels, intricate rosette designs, etc.), give me a PM.

Cheers,
Dave F.
