I've now had my Walnut/Lutz GAC (#253) for more than a month and it is amazing. Here's the NGD: Halcyon Grand Auditorium Cutaway Lutz/Flamed Walnut

Default homage to the J-45

Thought you might like to see the bracing Ed used on my build as he worked to satisfy my request for a "J-45 replica"


And, the finished product hanging in my office:

Default Halcyon / Tinker / Ed Bond Guitars

Amazed that the used market for these guitars is so low. These are world class guitars by anyone's measure. The workmanship, materials and playability are equal to any builder working today. I have 4 of Ed's guitars and a slew of others from 1st class builders such as Kevin Ryan, J. Walker, Greven, Traugott, Lucas, Collings, etc.

Yes not just "good for the price". Mine is super light, loud, aggressively responsive, and very pure toned. I got on Ed's list again for another soon after I received the first.
