Is it Fleischmann? Did I butcher that spelling? I love the bevelled cutaway, I am going to try that on my next one.

What?  I always look at the picture name and you would be surprised how often people don't change it.......

Sorry guys, no to all.  The turkey lard is still up for grabs.

OK I don't want to be sadistic so here is another hint.

I did not ask this Luthier what the back and side wood is but I know what it looks like to me.  If it is what I think that it is I believe that it is native to his country.  That is a HUGE hint......

Hmmm, well the bridge does look similar to Bashkin and the rossette similar to Doolin but they have been guessed.  The headstock looks like Jeffrey Yong.  That it?


It's a beauty whoever it is.

OK Jeff got right back to me with one more picture but first lets put his logo back on the head stock.



And yes it is indeed Malaysian Blackwood.



Many thanks to Jeff for the pictures and thanks to all who participated here!!!
