This is my last job, for a customer:

Mahogany body and neck with maple top, ebony fingerboard. Seymour duncan Sh-2 and Sh-4, and a L.R Baggs piezo X-Bridge, coil cut in a push-pull and nice celtic knots inlay work.

Hope you like it!!

I believe that it says "let them speak". It's Portuguese, or another language that's very close to it.

Exactly, it says "let him speak" , it's wroten in galician, a language close to the portuguese and spanish, it's the title of a song composed by the customer, about the people who loves to talk about everybody's life :D

Cool. I thought it was something like that. the last word is close to "falar" but not quite. It's a beautiful guitar. You do great work.

Turning the LP body shape into a double cut is a design challenge that has produced a lot of ugly guitars. I like how you did it
