Looking good Lars.

There is one thing you have to come clean on though. What caused the "feature" of the purfling squiggle on the neck heel?

Well. I was gonna make a little nice inlay there at first, but then I did not have the right tools but thought I should go ahead anyway !! duh . So therefor I cut to wide and totally wrong, so I had to do something about it, and here it is. not the best idea I suppose haha. but it is ok though. looks cool, but could be lots better ofcause :D .

Just played my little beauty this morning, MAN SHE SOUNDS LIKE A million dollars !!!!! To anyone in here that has not yet made a lattice beneath the main X guitar. TRY IT !!! amazing sound, (atleast this one) really balanced tone equal power across all strings bass and treble are perfect.
I have been playing guitar for over 20 years, tested like many many of high end guitars through my days. and I never thought I would make one I can say sounds up there, or and "without braging", even better. This one is totally amongst my top 10 played.
I will try end make a soundclip asap.
Now I am totally hocked on making guitars. !!! After my first I was thinking - well maby not really my bag, as it was not the best of sounds etc. but now !! bliss

All I need now is money hahaha. :lol:
Lars.

Lars,

Great job! [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap] . I agree with Steve - love the fretboard extension treatment.
You don't waste any time. Numbers 1 and 2 out of the gate in only weeks apart. Do you have an assembly line somewhere in that shop of yours you aren't telling us about?

Cheers
Rick
