Gorgeous stuff Hesh, as always. You are truly an inspiration.

Question: what fretboard wood were you going to use?

It's looking great, Hesh. Do you have a pic of an original L-00 bridge?

I think it begs for a pyramid as well since they're so vintage looking. They look really cool when they're all shined up...especially on a gloss black top. I've used 4 pyramids so far and the bottom radius (25') never seemed to be a problem.
