Lance, that is one gentlemanly guitar if ever there was such a thing.

Beautiful guitar and pics, Lance. Is that the same guitar you showed us a peek of earlier this year? If so the new photos show it off much better.

Hi Ken, yes I had posted a few right after I got it finished before the Miami show. As luck would have it, my Dad bought this new camera just in the nick of time, so I was able to get some nice shots of it. I WISH I had been able to shoot my last Braz D14 before it headed off to its final home.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Got an email from my Dad, appearently he read this thread, he said

"After reading the comments on the forum about the great looking photos, I guess it’s time to raise my prices…." wow7-eyes

On a serious note, if any of you would like shots of your guitars and are willing to risk shipping them. Im sure my Dad would be happy do it for a very reasonable price.

Just let me know.

Very Professional ,guitar and photography Lance !!
Your Dad did a great job. The guitar is just the best I've seen on this forum.
Whoever got this one is a lucky fellow. I'll bet it was kind of hard to let it go eh?
Lance,Did John play this one on your videos ?


Dave, sorry for missing this, I truly did not catch your question.

Yes this is the one that John Creech plays in this video.
I tell you, they are all hard to let go. Im sure everyone can relate, when you spend as much time as we do with these things, you grow very fond of each and every one.
Thanks for asking!

Thanks Alain,
Thanks to all of you for your kind comments. It really does me alot to me.

This was a very special project. I started planning this guitar with my customer over 5 years ago.
This is a guitar for my good friend and owner of the Acoustic Player Magazine Mike Crixell.


Mike got the guitar this week. God willing he will love it and it will be the cherry on top of this
entire experience!

Beautiful Lance
Very organic looking, which I guess means the same thing as my brother said. It all works together.
