That looks stunning Heshtone. You selling these things yet? If not you should be.

Wish I could find some BRW around here. Never seen any in Oz at all.

Paul I am not selling them yet and still trying to learn more, develop a signature sound which I think that I have nailed now, and I need to learn how to produce them more smartly like Bob ad Dave do to get the economics viable. I probably will never do commissions except on a very limited bases since I want to build what I like and not be stuck building someones idea of a guitar......

Thanks Lillian!!! :)

That piece of crap would el cabong nice on some heads me thinks, who would buy this stinkin' gitter anyway? :shock:

Hey what's wrong with me? thought i was a nice guy?

The finisher must a been on crack, dang, it looks like a mirror, i could see my dirty mug in that thing and what about the builder, i mean who would buy a gitter from a guy who used to build in a stinkin' bathroom and who now builds in a bedroom and drinks/talks with an alien?

I think i need some schleep, baaaaaah! :lol:

Looking great brother Hesh, another fine piece of art!

Well my secret is out about my shitty guitar.........

It's actually mahogany that I stained with, well you know......, on various days after eating various cuisine....... hence the nice, warm, browns, tans, corn like shades.......

Al since you were the first to discover my secret for "staining" you will be the first to shake my dung hand........ :lol:

And Al bro I never got to post your pic from the cover of Key West Bois (not that there is anything wrong with that :lol: )

Or your birthday gig that you do:

And Serge bro I never knew you had the terrorist in ya :lol:

Thanks all - I might get this guitar back in a week and start the final set-up. More shitty pics to come....... :lol:
