Here's another one that finally made it out of the shop. This one has the works. Every single option I offer is showcased in this instrument. Double top, Tahitian Black Pearl purflings thoughout the whole guitar, fossilized Walrus nut and saddle, lattice bracing, titanium bridge pins, Florentine Cutaway, Soundport, Ryan style bevel and 7 Piece Curly mahogany neck.
Thanks for looking!

Absolutely beautiful, Peter!!!! I love that top and I like the appearance of your pinned bridge better than the other version. Fantastic work on that bevel as well -- they aren't easy to pull off.
