Wow! What can I say... everything about this guitar is absolutely gorgeous! Those have to be the most vintag-ey looking F holes I've ever seen. I like the key bridge too. A very classy build!

Amazing! those F holes are nice and slim. I love the whole look of this guitar and am looking forward to hearing her sing..

Thanks Guys. I'll make a video soon.

I must say that it sounds really amazing!

Mellow, deep sound...really sexy.

I'm thrilled with it.

Tonight i took it to the Cigar Bar here in Rotterdam to show them what i made with the box they gave me.

They were so stingy with their boxes the first time i visited them but after they saw what i built

they invited me take all the boxes i wanted. SCORE!

Anyway, thanks for the lovely compliments. Very encouraging indeed!

Very very nice.I love the "key" bridge.That's very cool looking and definitely very original.
