AGE DISCRIMINATION!
I'm almost 64. I don't Twitter, Text, iPod, iTune, iForget, etc...

It's all I can do just to keep the pc going. How about a contest where the treachery of old age overcomes the enthusiasm of youth? laughing6-hehe

Hank,
That Walnut back is absolutely phenomenal. Easily, one of the coolest looking backs I have seen in a long, long time.

Here are the backs of a few of mine from this past year.

Macassar Ebony from Colonial Tonewoods

Bubinga (cut a bunch of these sets myself) - trying to sell some if anybody is interested
Image

Koa from Volcano Guitar Works

Claro Walnut (cut several of these sets myself)

Thanks, Simon.
We are blessed with beautiful old walnut trees out here in sunny California. Have to have something here to take our minds off all the other problems in the state gaah ...and it may as well be nice hardwood! :D

And your wood selections are not too shabby either! [:Y:]
