I hope it was someone here, I'd love to see the completed instrument.

Yeah, I saw that :) But $400, pretty pricey! I'm still getting over that one you have. Only $265, and the back is even better if you ask me.

Love this one too, I might buy it if I didn't have to pay sales tax [xx(]

And today I was going to order a mahogany neck for my next guitar and grab this along with it for a mere $75 on sale, but then decided I'd rather use a walnut neck blank I have instead, thus losing my excuse to order immediately, and now it's gone :(

I love the back set that I have, but there is a bit of flatsawness in it, while this one looks more quartered. Both are nice no doubt, but one can never have enough zoot. In any event, I have a a couple of billets of Brazilian that are that nice chocolatey stuff with some moderate spiderwebbing that I think looks much better than than the ABW, which is why I have yet to buy any. I'm considering cutting 1/2 of my billets up this weekend. I'll be sure to post pics if I do.
