Beautiful git there buddy!  Can't wait to see it with bridge and strings!


My only question is where did Tony take the picture?  Did he do them in his humidity controlled shower stall?  Or is that a really lavish spray booth?

That is his incredible spray booth. It is no shower stall. That room, if he
took the picture the other direction will be blessed with a dozen or so
guitars hanging from the ceiling

Yep brother Andy is correct and some jerk named "Guest" posted a thread about Tony's facility about 6 months ago, I'll try to find some of those pics and post them.

Found them:





Tony's very cool facility is completely RH controlled at 45% and there are other spaces that I could not photograph out of respect for my pal Tony.  It's a very big shop and I would guess it to be 50' X 50' and is a stand alone building purpose built for building and finishing.

WOW!  - That looks as clean as Hesh's shop!   What a functional space.  Large enough to get between the several guitars and it looks like a great ventilation system as well.  Kudos to Tony!


At least we don't have to think of manly-faced, miniskirted girls in this place.....
