Here is one of the most ambitious builds I have done so far.

As the title suggests, this thing has it all, except an arm bevel. But other than that, I think I put it all into this build.
The inlay on the rosette and purfling is spalted maple. Hipshot tuners. Five piece neck of Spanish Cedar, Peruvian Walnut, and flamed maple. Electronics are L.R. Baggs, Stage Pro.

I hope you enjoy the photos

Thanks for looking,

Dave

Stunning, Dave! Your fit and finish are first rate and the combination of woods is really classy. Love the Florentine cutaway.

Sweet looking instrument Dave, I love the spalt trim. What do you think of the Hipshot tuners? I used them on a Bouzouki but have not tried them on a guitar yet.

Fred

Really nice work on that. In the 7th picture, I thought you'd slammed it down inside the ground before I figured out it was the reflection. Very beautiful guitar.

John,
We took time to rake leaves today (and put the new gears and chains in the snowblower today). Winter comes to MN very soon.

Fred,
The Hipshots are great. Nice, tight action. Absolutely no play in the mechanism.
