Man, that's gotta be the lowest action I've ever seen.
Sure looks easy to play.

Zach usually wants to build something from scraps in my shop when he stops by for a visit. He spotted a piece of MDF left over from making a mold several years back and decided it would make a nice portable workbench and proceeded to glue two pieces of 2x8 lumber scraps to the underside for "legs".
He couldn't resist the temptation to convert it into a "guitar bench" so on goes a neck and out come the magic markers. He took string bending to a whole new level.

Here's Zach's little sister Jessica helping with color sanding a while back. She was fascinated by the shiny aspect of wet sanding.

That's got me thinking a bit Anthony, you should think about making "Z" holes for your archtops, a little personalization for your guitars and better than making them "A" holes.

Cool archtop there! Ol'Zach better tune up to pitch though.
It looks like his strings are a little too loose !   
Yeah, I like them F holes too. Great work Zach!
