Millennium Maestro Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I don't usually post much of this kinda stuff here, But... (This is how the story goes! (The quick version)) It all started a little over 3 years ago at NAMM. Jim Deurloo and myself were browsing wood suppliers and I saw a chunk of lumber that caught my eye. Jim immediately stated "You should buy that and I will build you a guitar". At PSP9 I brought up the lumber and had a good hour long chat with Master builder Pete Farmer, Heritage Custom shop Guru... 60 Minutes later a single personal guitar build turned into a 2 personal guitar build. 8 months later here is Part B, Part A will be acquired at PSP10. This is just the Dealer supplied lumber intended to be the back of my original build concept which ended up being a complete and separate guitar. I understand if you don't like Korina/Black Limba... I however am a junkie! No need to get into the specs... I will just get PORNY! Thanks Jim, Pete and everyone at the factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

111518 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Very pretty. I really like guitars that emphasize the uniqueness of particular and irregular pieces of wood. It is art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanschoyck Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 with what I have in it I believe it will be mine for good... I had a bunch of stuff done to her. Well, play it in good health, it's wonderful. That may actually be a relief to those who would find it a mighty temptation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalismanRich Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Way better than the normal Swedish porn that you guys usually have! Its hard to tell from the pics, Is the top carved or flat? I can't see any signs of a deep dish, so I'm thinking a very light carve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuz Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Congrats Guy, what a FANTASTIC guitar. A couple of questions, I can't tell by the pics if it is 1-piece or 2-piece top? Same with the back, is it 1-piece or 2? Also, just curious what that baby weighs with the exotic wood? Not that it matters, I was just curious.
