Almost a year in the making but here it is. A 12-fret modified V-neck w/no frills but I love it! Thank you all for the support and wisdom!

Darryl, The width at the nut is a hair over 1 &7/8 and the finish is Tru-oil over shellac seal coat. The stain on the back is minwax golden oak.

About the neck width, I thought I wouldn't like it very much since I don't really care for how wide classical guitar's necks are and because I have smaller hands. BUT let me tell ya, WOW! I pick up my Martin 000-15's small neck and immediately get turned off by it. I could the the 'V' profile makes it more appealing to my hand than classical guitar necks. They are more rounded and have a lot more mass. I don't know if I can own anything other than V necks now.

Thanks for all the complements.

The next one is in the works...

I like it a lot.

How about a YouTube video of someone playing it?

That has got to be the next step up for me too.

I have recordings but seeing someone play it wow.

That is a good looking machine, congratulations... bd
