Your wood selection is superb. The time you put into placing grain pattern pays off big time. It's always a pleasure to see what you're working on.
I'd like to spend a couple days just watching you do some finishing. The color tinting is rich and never overwhelms the wood grain- and that's why you rock. I keep thinking maybe it would be cool to apply your wood finishes to signs- something I'd love to talk with you about sometime if you have a minute to spare....
I just continue to marvel at your craftmanship! Thank you for sharing. I wish I could work for you "for free" on weekends. I would love to be able to build a 5 string bass for my wife and a Les Paul like that some day! Keep up the great work! You are an inspiration!
Ruined my computer keyboard from all the drooling over those wonderful instruments! ...wish there was a better word than "wow!" for those!...and the case...did you customize it yourself? Awesome!

The previous posts say it all, thx for sharing, you are one of those who give the rest of us goals to shoot for in both use of the carver and finishing techniques.
Hope I will someday be able to make something as beautiful, guess that's the difference between an artist and a hobbyist.

Ok, now it's not fair for you to be able to just "run outside" and snap a pic of this thing surrounded by green. Many of us are knee deep
in the white stuff. I've altered the image for the rest of us.
