With Koa binding. Veneers from Bruce at Notable Woods. Koa bindings bought here from a forum member. Matching quite good. It's not finished out. But I love the look!

Yes. ABW, Hibdon. Sweet stuff.

Hibdon Plug: OLF Sponsor. You will never be disappointed with this Tonewood supplier. If ur into ABW and Coco, ur builds will be amazing.
