Well that didn't take long there Lance

You got it buddy. Nice stuff eh?

I think Alan should invite some of his Colorado builder buddies on over to the OLF. (Strong hint there Al)

I knew this one! That is Larry's guitar. He is active on a couple of forums, a real nice guy and an excellent player too.

The pattern is natural.

[quote=Hesh]Is the figure/pattern in the second one natural????[/quote]

    You can do that with a wood burning iron!

       I just checked out Baskin's site(Bashkin?)! He builds some nice looking guitars! I've heard of ebony used on back and sides but never seen it, it's stunning!
