The Wild Rose really is a beautiful thing... I got to see it in living color! I
think Larry Robinson did at least some of the inlay... Maybe all of it.
Lance M. may chime in with more info.

Wow! It's me :) Thanks guys. I sometimes bypass this thread since I find I have an unfair advantage in knowing most the luthiers. Yes, it was a fun guitar and took two and a half years to finish. Just finding the materials and solving some of the design issues, where to get teflon that is only .032" wide, and getting the ab cut for it since at the time I didn't have my own saw. Larry Robinson did the fretboard, headstock and bridge (he did the easy stuff). I did the rosette...!

Thanks again,

Lance
