Hesh, what to say? You've hit this one out of the park, and then some...

That looks absolutely unique and positively stunning... Hat's off my friend. I know I ribbed you quite a bit about the black top, but (need emoticon with foot in mouth)

O.K., so you told us so...

Hesh or should I say Pooh Bear you totally missed on this one. Altruism leads me to volunteer to hide it in my possession.

Thats wierd... and compelling, makes me stand back a bit, but then I cant argue with the choice............its Heshian,
Just dont ever paint that tiger myrtle black if you ever want to show your face around here again! lol
I am pretty impressed with this - its bold...... the black face sort of says "factory" but the b&s say "dream factory!"
Good stuff.
Cheers

I think I'm finally starting to undertand the Genius of Hesh. I thought it would look cool, but it looks even more cool than I thought.

Awesome! Brilliant!

Hesh, brother, i swear before everybody, that no matter what type of wood, sacred or not, built with HHG or not, that i will never ever again discuss your choices in regards with guitar making, i'm going to say RIGHT ON everytime you unveil your choices to us because i know that whatever you'll decide, it WILL look AWESOME!

This guitar is FANTASTIC!

Now, if i ever discuss again, you're allowed to kick my b* from here to San Antonio Texas!

excuse me for now gotta go bang my head somewhere...
