Hey all, this is the 2nd guitar from the batch of 5 I just completed. Enjoy!

Bubinga Back & Sides
Curly/Swirly Redwood Top
Flame Maple Binding
Spalted Tamarind Details
Granadillo/Maple Fretboard
Hondo Mahogany Neck

This one is a bit more flash than sound. I overbraced the hell out of it because i was concerned with the integrity of the top. I had to go in at the end and shave the braces down quite a bit. It does sound better after doing that.

That spalted wood purfling is awesome! What is the bridge made of?

It’s a beauty. I like all the different contrasting woods.

Just straight grain hard maple (leftover from the neck of my previous guitar post)
