Tony sent these last week. He did a great job of getting just the "look" I wanted. I'm anxious to get it back. Hopefully it will sound as good as it looks.

This is the little 13 fret I had posted a few pics of a couple of weeks ago. The fiddleback mahogany came from Don Williams and the top is Adirondack from Allied. It's a 00 body, but it's deeper than normal ~4.5" at the tail. I love 13 fret guitars and this one's a 24.9" scale, so it should be lots of fun to play. It will have a pyramid bridge with gold Waverlies with ebony buttons. It has a little bling (abalone rosette, top trim and a partial vine inlay on the fretboard). It's for Healdsburg, so maybe it'll get noticed. At least, that's what I'm hoping for. |

That looks amazing! I have to know one thing though because it's killing me thinking about it.... That glistening star on the neck was done in photoshop or some photo editing software right?? Right? |

Its the WHITE room. I love shots from the white room. That guitar looks great Jimmy. Very pretty purfling combo and the back burst is incredable. John |
