By the way, I did like the heel binding on the neck also.. it adds a "classy" look to the guitar.  Heck, I might even try that myself one day.


I didnt notice the clear pickguard until you pointed it out either. It is almost invisible, which I like even more than the black or tortise shell ones. The fact that it can be removed without causing any damage to the guitar is a plus also. I have ordered a couple of sheets of this stuff from a seller on e-bay and will be able to try it out for myself soon. Thanks for the tip!

[QUOTE=Mike Collins]That guitar looks great!
How's it sound?

I like the heel binding!
It will be copied and called the
Laurie binding!!!!!
Nice touch for a 1st guitar!

Wow Mike - I'd better come up with a better story I guess! 


I may be biased, but I think it's the best sounding acoustic that I have.  Considering turning the other guitars into boat ores....It has beautiful trebles and mids, with a more subtle low end.  I may change the bracing slightly to see if I can get a little more bottom end on the next walnut one (or two or three) that I build, but still the best, IMHO.  Really, I am more pleased with the sound than anything else.
