Here`s an SJ Jumbo built using Michael`s plans.It`s definately the best sounding guitar I`ve built .I would encourage everyone who hasn`t done so already,to build some guitars using Michael`s plans.This is Western Red Cedar and Oregon Myrtle.Pretty much completely bling-less,like me  .The fretboard bindings headstock and bridge are Olivewood,from Oregon Wildwoods,which may be of interest to some.James Attachment: guitar piocs 093.jpg Attachment: guitar piocs 094.jpg

What JJ said - it's not a dread so don't blow it away......   OTOH it might be a good way to see how she sounds - at least once........ Beautiful guitar Skin! ![[:Y:]](./images/smilies/smiley20.gif "Thumbs Up") ![[clap]](./images/smilies/smiley32.gif "adulations")

What happen James ,Won't she stay in tune? easy with the shotgun,Don't blast her headstock off just yet! I'm sure you can fix her up! It does look like a very nice geetar and I love the SJshape. How was that olivewood to work with ? I've never used it. |

Yes it`s a Remington 870,it has great playability and TREMENDOUS VOLUME.The Olivewood seemed quite easy to work with,and seems very hard and stable.And thank you MR HESH for the BRW, I managed to get 3 rings out of it for the Rosette,it`s very beautiful.Sorry I don`t have a good picture of it.I`m a dunce when it comes to picture taking. James JJ ,now that I`m laying on the floor ,what do I do next? |

I have that same shotgun. It's a nice one. And great guitar too. Did you mill the lumber from Oregon? Locally grown wood is awesome if you can get it cut up. Nice work |

Nice one James! Also think that's a great way to take out frustration after a bad build day! Just kidding! I like the fretboard. Very unique. -John |
