Hehe...Zootman's wood-with-hidden-faces-in strikes again! I swear one of my Quilt Sapele sets has Darth Vader in it. Or possibly a ninja. Or maybe a praying monk of some sort. Here:

I don't think I will ever be able to look at a piece of wood the same again. Maybe we could make this into a new feature for our guitars? How much of an upcharge should there be for sets with mysterious hidden faces in them. It could keep the customer occupied for hours after they gets tiered of playing. It would allow you to set the guitar up at parties and have a contest to see who can find the most faces. The possibilities are truly endless!

Call the Vatican on that second pic. I believe it needs venerated. It was culled from a piece of walnut that made up the resting table of Christ tome. I now because it has the same image as the shroud of Turin

That would be in the 012 wood correct?

I saw it too, that is why I bought it

Now it's mine, all mine
