Hesh--

After seeing this guitar 'up close and personal' I know that it will be stunning to see when finished. I was also very impressed with the responsiveness of the top when it was tapped. Can't wait to hear it with strings.

Hesh,you are just cruising through this one my friend!

That wood is going to be SICK under finish!!! (You could of at least sealed the whole thing so we could see what if would look like... )

Keep up the fantastic work!

That seal coat give a little better idea of what the Git will look like and I'm even seeing more and more that black top is the right way!

     I can hardly wait to see this finished. Which at this rate should be about 11 O'clock tonight, Right?

   Do you alternate router directions into and out of the waist to reduce tear out,like some do or do you just cut conventional?

Good job bud, it feels good to see someone else than me perform a tutorial and you are great at it, thanks!

That is coming along sooooo nice Hesh, it's going to be a beauty.

That tiger looks killer under a bit of finish. Woooo Hoooo.

Oh, and that Lutz has some absolutly killer silking. That is one nice looking top.

Don't worry, I won't bug you about the Black Top, I think that is going to look stunning also and I think you've made the right decision. Either way, that guitar is going to be a real looker. Well done.

It's going to be like a surprise gift someday when a player or repairman looks in there with a mirror to see just how ugly the wood is. I'd love to see that reaction!
