Guuuhhhhh, dribble, dribble....(eyes bugging, mouth slightly agape)...okay, so I'm accused of ALWAYS looking that way, but THAT'S ONE BEAUTIFUL GUITAR!!!! And wow, your living room looks like a high end guitar store! I gotta get back in the shop before you surpass my guitar manufacturing speed record...I have 1 at Tony's and 2 on the bench just waiting for the airline to hurry and go belly up or whatever they're gonna do so I can get back to the fun stuff!! Nice work Hesh!!

Great looking gitter, my friend! I knew it would come alive under finish! I really love that bridge too... That living room pic is giving me serious envy, though...

Isn't there on guitar missing from that pic? I just counted eight of them... Alain Desforges38906.8623842593

Hesh, wasn't this the "boring" guitar!? Looks mighty fine to me, but then I'm partial to simple/understated/elegant. Call it what you will, that's a gorgeous git-tar!

Absolutely Gorgeous!!!
I love that Walnut and ebony Binding.
I use black binding on almost everything.

Why you couldn't finish this one is beyond me. It is an understated
beauty!!!!
I love the bridge. You have a winner design!!!

Congrats on #9. What is 10 by the way????

Very nice, Hesh.
That walnut was a pleasant surprise.
Someone posted that the finish would bring out the shazaam in walnut, and they were correct.

And I second the question--what's #10?

That's just beautiful. I'm envious and, as usual, a bit inspired. Great work, congrats.

Hesh, I'm glad you warmed up to this one, because it's definitely one pro-looking instrument! It looks like it's thinking about making music when it's just sitting there! O.K., here's another prediction utilizing my psychotic powers: Within a year, it'll be a great fingerstyle guitar!

Wow Hesh, yet another masterpiece! Looking forward to #10. Keep up the good work, they just get better.

I couldn't believe you were having prob's finishing this one! Things are proceeding just as I had forseen!

Understated, but very nicely done!

Number Ten... Number Ten... Number Ten... Number Ten... Number Ten...

Very nice, Hesh!

Elegant, simple, just the way I like 'em!

Hesh, now that one I really like! Your building is becoming really British, understated and very, very tasteful. I won't mention the s***a, dang I mentioned it! Looking at your rack your going to have to stop building soon or at least sell some, or of course you could hold a party like Martin's (Kiwigeo) friend!

Your becoming a class builder.

OK I won't say "I told you so" Beautiful guitar Hesh. The bridge looks great. The walnut looks awesome too. That adi top needs some break-in time before it becomes a finger-picker. great job my friend.

Ya done it again Hesh ...love the simple style of this one. It drips with the timeless class that only good taste and careful clean execution can deliver. Well Done!

As for your next, the combo looks to possess that same ingredient for success, a very tasteful selection of quality material. My only disappointment??? I was really hoping to see that set of Tiger Myrtle you got from Tim Spittle on a finished guitar.....oh well, maybe next time.

Cheers

Kim
