Well done Hesh!

I agree Lacey should charge you for her work - I could recommend an appropriate fee if you'd like

Hesh, you most certainly have something to be proud of. I like the variety in your "formation". Just like soldiers at the ready!

Hesh, that's really fine work! You must not be a "thumb-over" player, though--sharp fingerboard edges.

I think you should explain to Lacey that, since it was you who first exposed her work to the world, and since her first attempt at inlay is so good she could probably make a career of doing it for others, you're actually her manager and will deserve a 20% cut of future income!

Beautiful, Hesh! I hope you're going to bring it along to the next MGL meeting.

The inlay is stunning...I think that Lacey is a natural for inlay work. Please have her post on how she did it. Better yet, bring her to the meeting as well!

Hesh,

That is a beauty. Bet she sounds as good as she looks... And the head inlay? very, very nice. By the way, how do you get your headplate so dark? Is it plastic? dyed ebony?

I like the guitar stand, is it pvc pipe covered with pipe insulation? Spraye paint the exposed joints black?

Tell us more about that!
