Thanks for the closeup, Lars.
Those inlays look like they're glowing!

Yes, Lars, this is a beautiful instrument. I believe you showed it to us when in was in progress, didn't you? Perhaps I am remembering a different guitar from the same mold. The thing that makes it so memorable to me is the voluptuous shape of the bouts. BEAUTIFUL!!!. I like every single thing about it. Congratulations on the sale, too.
Best regards,
Patrick

My friends, Thanks you all !!! I really hope to meet you all someday soon, at one of the gatherings perhaps.
Right nowI just started working on another build, it will be of my own shape etc, the customer wanted a J45 gibson type of guitar, so I modefied that shape to make it more pleasent in my eyes :D .So hopefully this one will be a great looking instrument. for this build I am using Shanes Lutz top with mahogany B/S not sure of wish bindings yet. and instead of the "normal" martin bracing I will be using Lattice as I have done so far and is extremely happy with the result. I am thinking of using the cocobolo fretboard and bridge I just got from Stephen at colonial. Amazingly beautiful stuff. Again, thanks Stephen.
and again thank you all for the kind words.


Lars.
