I just started thinking about the load paths through the wood from all those strings. The bracing inside must be novel.

Pretty amazing instrument. Will it be steel string or nylon string? An amazing harp guitar player is Andy McKee. Check him out. you can find some of his videos on YouTube.com

Un saludo, Errol

Hey Stephen,

I had previously sent you an email. Don't know if you got it though. Noticed your website is down so if your email is tied to the website, perhaps you didn't get it.
