[Sorry for the crappy pics] Selmer knock-off using African mahogany coupled with a Western Red-Cedar top, German spruce bracing. This ended up being a great combo for this style of guitar. Really deep, hollow, sparkly and dry sounding. Takes me right back to when you could buy a steak for a nickle....

Since I made much more accurate molds and arching forms, this is my ninth...
