"The 60th" Nick Lucus Special
This is the guitar I built for my father in law for his 60th birthday. The guitar is not totally finished as I still need to spray it with nitro and buff, but here are some pictures of the guitar and the happy F.I.L
Enjoy.
Enjoy.

Allen, he's a very patient man, and a master woodworker to boot, so he really knows the value of a good finish (sure hope I can get it right).
On the day, he said he would just send it home with me...(bit of a pause) well, in a week or so...

Needless to say after seeing your FIL's smile he has probably forgiven you for marrying his daughter....
He looks thrilled Rod and I agree that you may not be getting this one back as soon as you had anticipated.
Absolutely beautiful guitar bro and the kind of styling and woods that I personally like on a guitar too.
The lower bout has a circular shape/quality that I have not seen anyone do before on an OO sized guitar and I really like that too!
You done good my friend and not only on producing/crafting this superb guitar but also for gifting it to a loved one too!
You know we should do a guitar swap sometime...

You know, I would still love to do the guitar swap with you to meet up June 2010 at the GAL convention in Washington State. You let me know and we'll get it started We could document it here or on the TLC.
I too really like the circular shape of this NLS versus the L-00 sized guitars I've seen. That's what sold me on it.
