What a beautiful little guitar Andy. Great to see you building again! Can't wait to see what is next. By the way, do you still have the 12 string guitar you built?

andy, it's gorgeous, and thank goodness you're back at it. i love looking at your guitars.
after my own 2 year break, i'll be back at it pretty soon too. we've also moved, done a massive renovation (basically built a house) and now need to get the shop in order.

What everyone else said, good to see you back at it! That's a little beauty. I like zebrawood and that is a great set. I have a set of plans coming for a L-00 and am looking forward to doing one.

A question about the reso in your avatar. If I remember right you did a standard bolt on neck. As in, didn't go through to the tail. I'm just wondering how it's holding up? Did you find it worked OK?I've got a great set of Koa and figured Redwood set aside for one and I'd like to do it something like the way you did.

Cheers,
Danny

Very nice guitar Andy.

I too love the Zebrawood.

I have a similar set. How would you describe the sound? How was it to work? How was it bending?

yes the reso has a bolt on neck like the rest of my guitars It was a bit harder to attach since there is no sound hole. The reso hole is bigger but further down and the soundwell to hold the cone gets in the way. I struggled but I got it bolted on. It is holding up just fine. It too is based on my L-OO shape

Neil
It sounds great. It has the full range and balance typical of my guitars since training with Ervin S. As far as bending goes, no problem. But remember I do a double side technique which makes it much easier to bend. An inner layer of EIR around 0.04 and the zebrawood at 0.05
