Gorgeous!   It's stunning to see what can be done using simple lumber from a place like Lowe's!   They've been a big source for necks and fretboards for many of us builders!  I even scored some Corian samples that I've used for nuts...  (Bolts are a TON easier, though!)

Thanks, John!  I made the headstock, neck and fingerboard out of red oak from Lowe's. Strings are Ernie Ball 14-22-30-38 Tuned to GDgB. She sounds great! Out of all I have built this my wife's favorite!

Yup a near ten.  I  don't like fancy for my own players.  This is kind of fancy but more subtle and really a bit understated.   Tune her to GDGB and send her to me.   Her name might be Gloria.  She is definitely a she to me. 

Kidding on the sending.  I have too many.  But I sure like Ms Gloria.
