Smile Shout out to Tony

I have to comment on Tony's awesome finishing. This guy is truly a wizard! Not to take anything away from John, here, but these guitars really REALLY SING! and Tony's finish is HARD as well as super thin.
I am amazed at some of the bonks that I thought would ding my JKs, but show no sign at all. Whew... saved by Tony's finish!

Go gentlemen! You rock for sure!!!

Mike, I am sure you are chomping at the bit to get this beauty! I am eager for my next JK and it is but a gleam in John's eye...

Cheers

Paul

Paul, thanks for your always encouraging and uplifting words. Between you and I, we've almost created a "kinnaird cult" of sorts .

Thanks brother. It is a pretty guitar. Thanks for the nice comments. The good news about John's guitars, you get pretty looks AND a beautiful voice to go with it .

Thanks Tom! I was able to enjoy a "routine compliance audit" today. I guess my grandmother was right..."no rest for the wicked" (no parties either) ha!!

I think this one is more of a black tie kind of guitar. I will say its definitely a cannon.

Wow - What a stunner! That black and white ebony is some of mother nature's best work. Looks nice with the florentine cutaway. And that finish work looks great too.
