Absolutely gorgeous. But I’m perplexed by the fret markers. Why a double dot at 5 and 9, nothing on twelve, and a major inlay at 14?

That really is a stellar looking guitar. I can't even get a fit and finish like that on my 65th guitar. If it sounds half as good as it looks then well, you got one helluva guitar there.

Frankly you could have said it was some weird alternate tuning scheme that came to you in a dream, and it still would have been one of the nicest guitars I’ve seen in ages! Just plain stunning.

Hey Casey,
How did you spray the sunburst? Airbrush? It's a beautiful effect.

That is a beauty Casey! How did you do the end wedge? Also, what gives the neck the dark look, is it a dark pore fill, stain, or perhaps a walnut neck?

I use an HVLP gun and four colors: amber, black with some brown, brown with some red, and an orange that is made with a few drops of brown, red and amber. I apply them in that order. There is a YouTube video of how it's done at Collings and that's what I shoot for.


Thanks for the compliments!
