My customer posted some pics of a guitar I just finished because I was too lazy to snap final pictures.
He is going to do a video of how it sounds, I'll post it when he finishes it.

Guitar shape is the OLF SJ
Torrified Sitka Spruce top from Alaska Specialty Woods
Ziricote B&S from Allied Lutherie
Rocklite binding
Paua Abalone Zipflex basically everywhere
Hondo Mahogany neck (dyed slightly black)
Evo gold frets
Nitro finish
Grover 97-18 Gold tuners

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Great choice on the toasted top with a spalted rosette. Also like the matte neck approach. Hope the final owner appreciates the quality.
