A while back I asked for help to build a guitar for someone who had lost a son. Don Williams was kind enough to trade a set from his private stash with some blackwood I had which wasn't properly seasoned yet. Thanks Don!!
Well, I promised I would post some pics so here it is.

It's a nice thing you're doing here, Peter...both with the wood, and its final destination.

Peter, I have been following your guitar threads on the AGF (Mishmannah), and think your instruments are beautiful and the sentiments/dedications behind them are very special.

God bless.
