Remember the first LMI kit I did and I gave it to a missionary team in Afghanistan? Here are some photos..

I am not sure what goes on there but I am sure they're happy that they gotten a guitar of this quality. It wasn't perfect but for people there it's good enough.

I'll be leaving to Germany in a few days so if anyone is interested in meeting please pm me.

Second one was for me, but I let a friend hold it while I am in Germany because I was going to sell it but I discovered that the frets would not seat correctly so I'll get back to it sometimes...

Thanks, it's the least I can do for them. That part of the world is so messed up already.
