I haven't any idea if this is going to work but here is my first attempt to use photobucket. At this point I am so confused that I don't even know what images may appear,if they do at all.

Hesh ask for pics of the Feb 4th guitar that was thirty years in the making.There are(may be), other pics of an OM that I built for my brother and a couple of dulcimers.

Feb 4th is the dred. ERW, Bearclaw sitka top,ebony fingerboard,headplate and bridge, chrome Shaller tuners.

The OM is locally harvested back walnut from my uncle's farm in Koskonong,MO. It has been air drying for about thirty years, should be ready. Top is very nice bearclaw sitka,paua ab trim with ebony as before. The tuners are locking Sptetzels in gold and black.

Just took a look at my previous post. I will have to try again. The pics are terrible.

Sorry about that.

Nice work Cecil! Nice to have some significant wood to work with - and black walnut on top of that!

Just love the walnut!

Hi Cecil,
Try avoiding using the flash, and get some natural daylight, that should perk up your pix. Maybe a tripod, if needed.

Cecil, great looking guitar. How does it sound to your ear? I'd like to put some fingerprints on that one. Congratulations.
