This #2, an OM style with black walnut back, sides and neck. Engelman spruce top and all ebony trim. Thanx to all the OLFers who contributed to this guitar with all the support. Pals, Vic.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Very nice. How did you do that headstock logo? Inlay? Decal?

1. The finish is oil violin varnish. 2. The peghead inlay is white pearl that was done for me by Bob Malda @ bobscustominlay.
