Just finished 5 guitars, here is the first one I will post about (the best one, IMO)
Figured Maple Back and Sides (heavily laminated, lol)
Adirondack Spruce Top (dyed slightly to match warmth of Maple)
Ebony Trim
Spalted Tamarind inlays and radial purf

This one seems to be everyone's favorite out of the batch. It's got an impressive low-end considering it's Maple. Super balanced and LOUD.

A very dynamic guitar, I will be sad to see it go.

Whew! Super nice and love the design elements. Can we see a close up of the front side of the headstock?
