What amazing dexterity that man has. The guitar sounds wonderful, which is hardly a surprise. Hugely impressive all round.

Thanks for the response.  I missed getting the perfection I was hoping for, but there is always the next build and my mistakes on this one are the great lessons I learned on it.  I have several ideas in mind for future builds, but keeping it a fun process is a necessary ingredient.  Jim is a terrific guy and obviously knows his way around a fretboard.  

BTW, the box on this build is a fantastic size. Arturo Fuente Royal Salute.

Ahhh, a devotee of Eric Johnson, Steve Vai and Joe Satriani! The fact that he can pull off those right hand taps on a CBG says something truly awesome about your neck building, fretting and intonation skills, Charlotte. Well done!

Very Nice, good playing.

It got clipped to soon at the end, I was waiting for Jims comments on it!

Pretty cool!

 Nice build , sounds great !  I also want to take the time to thank you for being one of the few women to post on CBG Nation regularly .  It really helps balance out the site and hopefully will encourage other women to become involved .  Are you starting to play your CBG's yet ?  Just curious .

Sounds great, Charlotte.  You also did a fine job with the frets, because the intonation sounds spot on.

Rcok on , ma man. Give us a pound, as your good for a "tap", LOL. I can just about get thru Satriani's "Midnight" tapping. What happened to Joe? Are youhim in disguise. Nice, ;)
