This is a first for me...all mahongany guitar. Or hog top as the old blues guys call it. It's a small bodied guitar. About Grand Concert size. 14 frets clear. The thing really sings!

...and just to show off a bit.

Very pleasing guitar there, Paul!
And that neck joint is most impressive.

I like how you bent the wood 90 degrees and turned the side into a neck. There is NO joint there IMO !!!! That is some sweet talented work my man.

Superb guitar Paul, I love the great top and lack of ornamentation, with the butt-graft just adding the interest. Very clean looking, very tasteful. That's one guitar I'd be proud to own and even prouder to have built. Boy, I'd love to play that one, I'll bet it growls. You definitely win my guitar of the month award!

Love the guitar, and the neck joint is superb. How do you get it that tight, any tricks to share. The neck joint gives me fits.

Thanks,
Greg

Paul,
Understated Elegance is really all I have to say. I love all your work Paul, and you really are an inspiration to us newbies. I would really be able to build a guitar like that one day. The neck joint is a miracle. At first I didn't know what I was looking at, but when I realized what it was, I was amazed. You are truly talented. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see what's next!
Tracy
