Just finished this guitar a few minutes ago -so far so good…
One of the nicest pieces of curly maple I’ve ever had.
Adi top
light nitro finish

Wow! You are not joking about that maple. Spectacular!

How many guitars do you make a year? Seems like you post a new one every week :)

I am doing around 8 guitars per year now.

The last one I posted and this one were the two closest together I ever did -about 3 weeks apart.

The outstanding finish work highlights the beautiful materials you incorporated in the traditional 12 fret body shape. I like the way the similar but different edge purfling works with the rosette ring. The simple back strip also adds interest without detracting from the curly maple back. The red spruce top looks like those I've seen on the old guitars - a bit of uneven width grain and color rather than the bland uniform monochrome of some soundboards. I like it.
