So far I love the sound. This is the redwood top you saw at Ervins.   The
other top I had at Ervins was a fully braced Lutz. I carved off all of those
braces and re braced re thicknessed the top.
I will be starting the set up of that guitar today. I was building them both at
the same time.

Really nice Andy! It's been fun watching you develop your craftsmanship to such a high level over such a short time.    Can't wait to see what you'll have for us in another year!

Yep it is an Andy DePaule Rosette.
I inlayed it and then filled the space around it with tightly packed cocobolo
dust and the wicked in CA. Then sanded it clean

Andy, I feel sort of like Ron.
"You see one perfect guitar from Andy, you've seen them all."
Well, almost. This one does stand out.
I bet Gina sheds a few tears over this gift.
That is to say, good tears!

Very nice.

Steve
