I just finished this one & snapped a couple of pictures. The koa is so nice, I couldn't resist posting. The B/S set is from Bruce Kreps at Notable Tonewoods. Attachment: TOP 40.jpg Attachment: BACK & SIDES 40.jpg Attachment: BACK 40.jpg Attachment: FOOT 40.jpg

Steve, can't really add anything to other comments. I like these posts; enjoy seeing how all the various tonewoods look under finish. Your's is a job to be proud of. |

Thanks for the kind comments. Several folks asked to see the slot head, so pics posted below. My apologies for no inlay. It's the next skill I need to develop. The tuners are Waverley 3-on-a-plate with snakewood buttons. The buttons are a nice complement to the koa. Attachment: Head 2 40.jpg Attachment: Waverlys 40.jpg

Very nice! The Koa is great, but so is that Sitka. And are those maple bindings? Good match for the sapwood center. Tasty...really tasty. Steve |
