What about small dots on the left side of the frets? Similar to Godin?

Not sure what Godin uses but I stole the idea from Brian Gallup. These are small brass tubes.

That's what I'm talking about! That is a SWEEEEEEET sounding guitar. Keep tootin! Clinton

Yeah Paul, you should be very proud. I can hear your horn from hear and it sounds great.

Oh, they just small dots on the fretboard, like your side markers. They're
very inconspicuous. If you try to keep dots off your fretboards, it could
be worth a look.

Excellent Paul. Truly mate excellent, who would buy a Taylor/Martin etc when you could have a Woolson masterpiece, superb .

Cheers

Kim

Nice sounding and looking! I like the clean layout!

Congrats Paul - the recognition is well deserved!

P.S. Tootin' is fine as long as it's reciprocated and done In-Kind. Otherwise it is just plain self centred Tootin'

Looks and sounds great!

Neat truss rod cover. The eye had a hard time telling the outline. Beautiful.

What's really neat IMHO is that we can all say if in a small way, I know this guy!

Congrats Paul.

The website says: Quilted Sapele. Lutz spruce top. Rosewood bridge & fretboard and binings.

Microsmurf, Though he's usually being a spaz, this time John was just referring to an inside joke.
I had one of the quilted sapele guitars at HGF '05. Because I wasn't a superstar, very few people would stop at my table except just to ask, "what kind of wood is that?"
"It's quilted Sapele".
"Hmm, it's cool". and keep on walking.

Way to go Paul! That Sapele sounds fantastic to my ear, and would love to own it! Toot on...

Thanks for sharing!

Paul,

Brag on, my friend! Looks terrific, sounds even better. What a big, bold, sweet sound on the lutz/sapele! The LG is cool, too. There's just something about those all-mahogany guits....

I'm with you on keeping the 'board all-wood. BTW, I think that LMI has 2mm dots!

I just made up silly answers to that question while you were away.       Hope you don't mind.

I have a feeling that is going to change before too long. Great looking and sounding guitars, Paul! I like your distinct style and clean designs, it really sets you apart from the crowd.
