and I'm excited! I was a little apprehensive because this batch was started after I'd already left Nicaragua and in the earlier batches I'd been around the shop off and on to help make sure everything was going well and to catch problems or potential problems while they could still be fixed.

They're not perfect, but Sergio's getting better and better. The tone is very, very, very good for a brand new guitar. This batch includes two Adi-topped and braced dreads, the first he's built. Open, resonant tone that's very loud...I'm definitely a fan.

A couple teaser pics, with more to follow:

They're looking pretty good! Have the set-up problems been solved?

Seems to be. I've only had time to get two tuned up, but the neck angle is good and the action is great on both.
