Here is another one designed by Mary. African Blackwood "Hollow Back" & "Double Sides", 1959 Sitka bearclaw top, African Mahogany bindings, 24.9" scale length, ebony FB, bridge and peghead. Gold MOP inlays and gold fret wire. I just finished this one tonight. Thanks for looking and please stop by our table for a test drive. See y'all Friday. 
Sorry for the blurry pics. I was tired and in a hurry. Besides I am a builder and not a photographer ;) |

Dude, there's some serious "claw" in that top. Seriously though Tim, it looks gorgeous! I'll bet it sounds gorgeous too! |

Thanks for the kind words guys. Don, Kim's headstock has straight lines on the top facets, mine are radiused on the outher slopes and flat in the middle. As far as I know it is all mine ... but as we usually find out ... some poor sole probably did the same thing in 1837 
Gotta get some sleep. We fly out at 4:00 AM. |

Best of luck to ya Tim, I hope you sell everything you brought with you! (Um, not the wife though, you should keep her) I hear ya on the headstock thing. I've played with virtually the same shape as yours myself. Nothing much original these days is there? Most everything has been done already. |
