I can't wait to see that wood pop. Nice job mate. Arias has done some nice rosettes. I thought about your Halibut then one thing led to another and the next thing I'm contemplating how to design a fish scale rosette. I wonder if Arias ever did one?

From 2018

I can see where you were going with that. I like it. Was Arias a big influence on you as a luthier?

No, Santos, de la Chica and Barba and 1960’s Reyes because those were the guitars owned by my teachers and friends in San Francisco in the 1990’s. I got to keep them in my shop to study for a a week at a time. I actually made that rosette before I started looking at Arias!
