As a beginner, I am most impressed with two parts of your guitar. One are the two small pieces of binding around the headstock at the corners. The second is the sculpted head/neck area on the back. From the angle, the symmetry looks great.

Yes, I am. I have a Factory Five Racing replica that I finished building at the end 2008.

Very cool. I know of another Luthier down south who has a FFR. I have an ERA FIA. That's 3 of us! Ha! Anyhow, I forwarded your website to a good friend of mine in WA who is always on the lookout for good acoustics.

Very nice! I always thought if I were to build a 427 bodied car that I'd have a tough time deciding between the street or comp look. I've seen a couple street originals that were really appealing.

Mike D on this forum has a street look FFR. Perhaps he'll chime in.

Thanks Jorge. American Tune is one of my wife's favorites. She played the dread for these clips.

Yessir...that's a really elegant guitar. I really like all the bookmatching...even the heel cap!
Beautiful set of Hog too. I had some like it, but regretfully, I sold it.
Bravo, sir.
