Nice Hesh, very very nice! She sure did a great job with that inlay. Tony does a great job as well.

Cudo's again Hesh. Very nice.

Hey Hesh, do you design the headstock so the curves of the wing start at the front of the nut? If so, that is going to make one very cool looking nut, curved ends and all.

Wow Hesh that looks great! I think I've got to get me some figured redwood and a girlfriend that does inlay!

So I know where I can get the redwood from. Anyone know where to get the girl?
