This is a 000 made from BobC's zootalitous curly mahogany and Ed Dicks Engleman Spruce. It's got red accented herringbone trim and all other trim will be Mad Rosewood, Binding, bridge, fretboard, headstock (both sides) and the headstock is the traditional slotted style.

John...That's such a beautiful combination. That accenting is great and the workmanship is superb as usual.

How did you get the red spine in the herringbone? That's unique and quite effective.

Looks great John. Nice label and everything. You have got a looker there. Is this one for a customer or just for yourself? How's the tap tone--sounding gooood,I hope!!?? Thanks for letting us have a peek at another one of your creations. Have a great weekend.
