Thought id share a little bit of whats been keeping me out of trouble lately! Here is my OMFS Addy Indian. Not quite done yet, but its getting there. Here is another WRC Cocobolo ready for bindings Last is my daughter Leanna scraping the glue from the center reinforcement strip... Shes been keeping me REAL busy! This is HER guitar, she is determined to build it 100% by her self. Attachment: leanna.JPG

Thanks Mike! These are commissions, they need to be done so I can start my HGF guitars. After these two and one more OMFS I have a pair of 12 fret dreads, then I will start my HGF batch. Im lovin it! Leanna is going slow, taking her time and doing it right. She has a very creative mind. |

Lance, that is so cool to see your daughter building her own guitar! How old is she? I've built a couple of electrics and my oldest son (he'll be 7 next month) is always hot on my heels if I head to the basement to work. I've been talking about taking on my first acoustic and last night I was watching a video posted on here about the Godin factory...my kid was fascinated by the whole side bending process. It's cool to see him get excited about this. |

Lance, I'll second what they all said about your daughter. With regard to those first four pics, they just kill me. Just beautiful. Now........I can hardly wait to see your finish bringing out all the best visual qualities of that cocobolo body in pic number 5. Best regards, Patrick |

Cool guitars, Lance, and cool thing with your daughter. I expect I'll be starting an L-00 with my 12 yo. Anna Lee next year. She's been cruising BobC's site picking out wood. Uh-oh. Two in the family afflicted with WAS. |

Lance, your work is as clean as it gets. Man, I hope my table isn't next to yours at Healdsburg. Not that I don't want to meet/visit with you. I DO! It's rather that I don't want people seeing your work, and then scrutinizing mine! Ouch! ![]() Anyway, they're lovely. Anxious to see that coco under finish! Steve |

Lookin' good as always Lance. That's very cool that your daughter is learning the craft. That's a great shot of her cleaning the glue squeeze out !! |

Great looking stuff, Lance. I love the concentration on your daughter's face. She's really into the process. What a great thing. |

At GAL last June, I was sandwiched between Jeffry Elliott and Charles Fox. What, me self-concious? hmmmm... Steve |
