Milo and Ancient Spruce Concert
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 7:15 am
Milo is from Hawaii and rather difficult to get. The Ancient Spruce comes from a tree found while excavating for a factory in Alaska and is carbon dated at 3000 years old when it was buried.
This is a custom build for a client that has Hawaiian ancestry, so the Milo is significant to her, and well, she just fell in love with the Ancient Spruce. The bindings are curly Blackwood. Fret board has a subtle streak of brown that matches the Milo that runs up it and continues into the peg head veneers.
This is a 15" concert, with a coumpound radius of 12" - 16" on the fret board. A K&K Aloha Twin pickup and finished is high gloss polyurethane.
