That guitar is a stunner! So happy for you! Thanks for the eye candy, though I am sure it is the ear candy that is sending you over the moon!

Best,
Jayne

I have an "0" size guitar on order with him and a Model 'F" with Kathy.

Wow, Chris,

Absolutely lovely guitar from Kathy Wingert! I really love that very light burst! I bet it really does sound heavenly!

Very well done!
