Yes, Peter-you certainly gave him the essence of clean and elegant work to finish. I am a staid conservative on guitar configuration, but I still appreciate well executed creativity. mt

Wow, I could look at that one all day. Nice work, Peter. The back and sides... are they Makore? Anyway, stellar job on that one.

Peter, did you get that BS set from Gallery Tonewoods in a swap meet a couple years back? Looks just like the stuff I'm using right now on a Makore/Sinker OM.
