Why did you call it "stinker"? It looks really nice! I'm sure it sounds good too. What is the finish?

Back and sides are Higuerilla, a mahogany like sort of sound.

The inlay is done by laser. It needs a few tweaks from having it redone from old CNC programs, but it's more or less there.

It plays like butter, but it's a bit mellower than I've gotten used to with my satin guitars. I can hear the UV cure poly. Sure is shiny though;)

I called it stinker cause I made it so I can...;)

Looks like a fine Stinker. Or is it Tinker's Stinker? Who can tell?

I love it much all the way around. So a UV Poly finish? Fancy! Up there with the big boys!
