I sprayed the last coat of Nitro lacquer on my wedge this morning, it will be rubbed out in 4 weeks. These are not that hard to do.

I am very late to this party, but I don't read this part of the forum much.

I have a Concert Jumbo complete with Manzer Wedge that is in the white... just about ready to be sent off for finish.

I'll post more pictures when it gets back from Joes house. :)

I strung mine up and did the set up Monday evening and am very pleased with the sound, the body shape and bracing are the same as a martin J. I built the same guitar last year with out the wedge and the wedge guitar sounds as good, so I lost nothing with the internal area being less due to the wedge. I hope to get some pictures taken and posted on the weekend though I will be very busy as my wife is having her knee replaced in the morning and will be in hospital until Sunday.

By the way my bad right shoulder loves the feel of the wedge.
