Ah once again your luthier skills shine through (the burst finish)

Great work Lance! Do you plan on engraving the vine?

You other jokesters area a scream -- I nearly spilt my morning coffee "I blame it on the school system,"

Oh....Nice looking guitar Lance....!

You done good.

I do like the transparency of the burst.
I like the fact that it's well framed by the purfling. I think that's what bugged me about Hesh's burst, it sort-of melted into the dark snakewood binding without a visual framing. But his guitar is nicer!

Lance, she's a beauty! That is really nice looking acacia!

I can't wait to post the one I'm working on now. The back and sides look like they were sawn from the same piece of wood as yours.
