Development of a Burst

Well, the burst is done....I think it is beautiful. Joe White did a fabulous job, and was willing to work through my color vision with me. I cannot wait to get my hands on this.

WLG Finishing Up!

Well, my first WLG is coming down the pipe to completion as well. Here is totally sealed up, compliments of my friend Joe White at Sunset Guitar Finishing. The koa looks like it is really popping with that dark coco. Though it is destined for a burst, you can see the beauty of the carpathian top...I can't wait to hear this one - or make delivery as I know the recipient is going to LOVE it!

Enjoy!

Guitars in the White!

Just got an update from the amazing Tony Ferguson, the new finisher of my electric guitars. These shots are after spraying a couple of coats of clear. After a very short career in guitar finishing, I decided that it just was not feasible for me to continue because my finishes were preventing me from reaching the level in my guitars that I am striving for - so in comes Tony. These are the first two that are done by him, and from now on, will come standard on all orders.

Thanks,
Stephen










Binding Installed

Well, I got all of the binding and purfling in yesterday, and now we are in the final ugly duckling stage of the game. Just a little scraping and sanding and the box will be done! The flamed koa looks very understated right now, but as soon as we hit it with finish, it will come alive.

Enjoy!
