My New Axe

Hi All,

She's a beauty. I see she's #18. Does that mean this luthier is relatively new? Congrats

Stunning! Pegheads sure look nice.
I like the rosetto design, and that the pattern is used at the tie block too.

The rosette design is taken from Daniel Friederich. I used it too for a while and I must admit, it's really lovely. Overall looks like a very nice guitar, congrats!

Glenn's been building for only a couple of years. There is some info about him at his website. He is really passionate about building guitars and is definitely going places as he's producing guitars of high quality!

Yes ! your absolutely right and I will be doing that as soon as I get my new soundcard and mic set up. But in the meantime here is Jason Mcguire playing it only 2-3 days after it was strung up. (Recorded on a digital camera).
