Here's 3 of the 4 I'm bringing. I'm almost done!!!

First is a Cedar/Claro small body, coco bridge and fingerboard.


Hey Kent, all of the guitars posted here are beautiful, but man, your cedar/claro guitar is sweet!!

How does it/they sound?

Greg

Thanks Greg. I love that little guy too. All the details really came together.

As for how it sounds, that's always hard to put into words (and I'm not exactly objective!). All I can say is that it's the first time I've used that combo of woods and I'd certainly do it again. I loved it immediately but I haven't yet had a chance to get someone with better chops than me to really give it a workout.

By the way, that one and the jumbo are my first two with adjustable necks and I'm sold do far. You still on the fence there?

Alright, I'm finished and all guitars are in their cases in the dining room, my display stuff is ready and my tools are in the box ready to go. All I need is to load up the car on Thursday and take a nice drive over to the wine country...and there is still a day left.

So...what have I forgotten!!!!???? oops_sign

Congratulations are in order, that's for sure. [clap]

Looking forward to hearing your guitars,
