Peter, that looks amazing. I'd love to try one of yours someday. I love the wood on the armrest. Is it Mac Ebony?

Just beautiful.

The shape of the heel looks great too. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

What a relief, eh? Like finishing a final exam.
She looks beautiful, and I'm looking forward to playing it!

Wow Peter,

Artistic inspiration and great workmanship! It all looks really great but the simple white with the shell in the rosette was a bold move and worked well. I hope there's a bidding war on that one. :)

Good Luck at the Show,
Danny

Peter, that's really gorgeous. I wish I could be there. Is that the Cedar/Olivewood? If so, how would you describe the sound of Olivewood?

cheers, Christian

Hi Peter,
Beautiful guitar!!! And I notice you have tried a regular pinned bridge (a lot easier to make I bet) -- I think it enhances an already very nice design.

Best of luck at Healdsburg.

Top drawer! I really love that burst. It looks very warm. Is that zipflex?

Very nice Peter .. the finish is exceptional ... scraping the toner off the single white line must have been fun (for whomever did it ...)
