Getting close to finish; I've got it fretted with brass fret wire, and the headstock has had the design wood burned into it.

Hi, Cynthia. Thanks for the kind words; I am humbled that you would feel this way. Of course you can be a friend, just request.

awe, Always agog. Im too far beneath your skill to give meaningfull appreciation. I cant ask to be on your friend list; but know that this is the bar to aim for. You astound with every new creation. Know that you inspire. I am grateful you share so generously the in progress photos, and your tips have shaped and resolved problems in my approach to how to build.  My goal is to learn the beautiful tapered necks you produce. I dont have the planer; or quality tools. But your step by step, with clear photos, give me greater insight on the why, and how a true artist creates. Art in wood, Thank You, a fan..
