Intermediate challenge - Pictures of...

after winning the competition i got Jason's prize instantly, and i can only recommend the site to everyone, there's lot of incredibly useful material!

yesterday, my prize cejilla has arrived so i've taken a couple of shots and uploading them here, i owe it to you all and especially GJ, who's sponsored it, it's a beautiful piece of art, easy to use and somehow my guitar looks and sounds better now!

thank you all!

Thank you for the kind acknowledgement, ymiJ.
With Ricardo “cejillas are like jewelry” and the piece you picked does add nicely, color and spice, to the guitar (a Ramirez, isn’t it?)

yes, it's a Ramirez FL-2, a student model...
she's been with me for 2,5 years (that's when i really started to take my guitar playing seriously)

Nice one! Looks like we picked very similar cejillas.

Pictures of mine are attached. Thanks again gj!
