It is Myrtle with EI Rosewood bindings. This is the second guitar I have done with this wood and it was my last set of Myrtle with this figure that I have. Too bad. it is great looking stuff..

It is modeled after a Lowden F style guitar, I have always liked that design...
I should get it back in a few weeks from Tony..
I can't wait to see it up close.

I've never seen such a strong block mottle in Myrtle. It's really stunning!

I wish I could get my hands on more Myrtle like that but I just haven't seen any yet. The 2 sets cane from o board that was 14"x40"x 7/8 so I had to some careful resawing to get the 2 sets.
