Comment by Mike Willmouth on January 10, 2018 at 2:21am: You all don't know how hard I had to work to get that birdbath to stay on the neck like that :)

Comment by Jeff 'Bones' Reilly on January 9, 2018 at 5:21pm: Very nice all round .

Comment by Scott Schoepf on January 9, 2018 at 5:14pm: Having a hard time typing cuz I’m laughing so hard. That is one sexy guitar! Do you have a link to the tiny bird bath? Love that box!

Comment by Mike Willmouth on January 9, 2018 at 12:18pm: Uncle John, you crack me up -- your jokes are as bad as mine (that's why I find them funny).

Comment by Uncle John on January 9, 2018 at 10:19am: I don't know why you would mount a tiny bird bath at the tenth fret. High tweets? Soaring tones? Clean channel? Other than that, it looks fantastic.

Comment by Mike Willmouth on January 9, 2018 at 10:05am: Thanks Jerry and Bluesheart. This one was built for someone.

Comment by Jerry Jordan on January 9, 2018 at 9:55am: very nice.,..ship it !!

Comment by Bluesheart on January 9, 2018 at 8:26am: Beautiful, nice work!
