Here's a Black Limba SJ with Englemann top almost ready for finishing. Real nice stuff to work with!

     Nice Korina, Peter. I love working with it on both electric and acoustic
guitars.

    I had a half dozen nice vontage Gibson pieces made of Korina that I
was forced to sell to make it through my recent layoff. I'm glad that I had
them to sell, though. I'm sure I'll miss them in the future.

    I've only built less than a dozen acoustics with it, but they all sounded
great...no matter what top wood was matched with it.

    Nice work and a beautiful guitar.

Regards,
Kevin Gallagher/Omega Guitars

I agree with Hesh, what a production schedule of world-class guitars. Go Peter!

Peter, what did you use for binding? Looks like ebony but it's hard to tell from the angle of the pics. Great looking guitar!

I have a couple of sets of black limba that I got from the Zootman. Looking forward to using it.
