RE: New guitar Spruce/Padauk (in reply to Andy Culpepper)

Personally, I think that any kind of design has its place. Whether a draft that shows relation to historical shape or stays within historical pattern, or designs that relate to general aesthetics ... From rat design (which I think to have not seen yet, but would like to) to moderate bling. To me both, purist style and diversions are legit. And sometimes even over decoration (like that incredibly carved specimen lately made by an architect who built an axe for his daughter) persuades for the amazing technique alone. As long as playability and sound are appealing too, who is to complain. Only when a grand master is in his last makes -like currently one in Granada- I would find it a waste if he was hypothetically spending much of time for deco. (Which in fact he is not doing, just besides.) For, in such a case, I believe, it be great if he just put out in numbers and consistent quality still as much as possible. PS: BTW, Andy; Could you think of building a rat design guitar?
