Sheer poetry! Fantastic wood, especially love the grain of the neck along the heel. Really special stuff!

I am not worthy to look upon this instrument.


Beautiful, gorgeous, oh well, I can't think of anymore superletives. 


I really like the mini-pin bridge, too.  Thanks for sharing with us.

Hey Peter

I like it. It reminds of something Kegin Gallagher would do. What is the
intended use of the guitar? It looks like something made for
contemporary music.

WOW!!! is right! That’s definitely a beautiful guitar!

Did you bind the fretboard in boxwood too? It’s very complementary!

And, I really love that rosette! What kind of wood is it?

Robert

Beautiful guitar! 

I really like that back set.  You had to be thrilled when you saw it under finish for the first time.  I especially like the inlays.  Fantastic work!

Absolutely beautiful.
I love the Mal. Ebony. My current build is from the same batch from the
Zootman.

I will pass on these picts to my customer. She will appreciate what the final
product might look like. I hope I can make it as nice as yours
