The first weekend of August is the annual UMGF and MOC get together in Nazareth PA. I have 6 guitars to be going out there and today I get topick them up from the finisher. Pictures will be posted later today. I think I will be rather pooped of neck setting and bridge placing. One is a conversion from a 57 trashed guitar to a 1937 spec D 28.
updates later

Beautiful work. The headstock inlay is eye popping. I would love to see a closeup of that.
