Enjoy.

Beautiful woods and guitar!
The pictures are excellent too, did you do them yourself?
And did you make the purfling?

I like the color of the neck with the ziricote alot too.

Wow, the ziricote looks gorgeous on that guitar! I am currently working on a ziricote model myself, and seeing yours finished is an inspirement to me to get mine done. The spruce looks beautiful too! The rosette and initial inlay on the fingerboard give it some wonderful character too. I must admit, I like your pawprint soundport on the upper bout - very cool! Keep up the good work my friend! However, I agree with Frank, I'd like to see, or rather hear, a soundclip of the instrument. But seriously, keep doing what you're doing! [:Y:]

Congratulations! Your work is looking completely professional, and IMO is way underpriced.

Thanks guys
Mike the Ziricote was very easy to work with. Keep in mind I use the double side technique so the ziricote part of the side was only 0.06 when I bent it.

Just Beautiful Andy! I agree with Howard, your guitars are priced too low for the quality that goes into them. Great job, and the customer must me so happy!

Nice job Andy, looks like it's really starting to flow. Do get a sound clip if you can.
