Hope you enjoy the April Featured Custom, Paper Doll.

Announcing here on the club a little earlier in the day before I change the home page.

Amazing, amazing, amazing...

...repeat as required to trigger appropriate blissful trance-like state of mind.

Maple-bound fingerboard is an elegant detail!

Beautiful guitar, but I kept waiting for the "April Fools" part. I guess this year's April Fools is no April Fools!

Bill, tgo

I too thought that this was a "normal" custom, but my wife caught it right away! She was waiting for the "special" April 1 custom, and she got it!

Patiently awaiting for the version2 release of the Distill-App.
Original release only works on the front of instruments . . .

I was in Culver City visiting my son when this posted so I'm just now seeing it. I have caught a few of the April Fools customs, but never saw the archive & have missed some of them. These are hilarious Mica! You really put a lot of thought & effort into making them sound ridiculously real! It's so nice to see that people with the talent & skills of rocket scientists & brain surgeons can still have a sense of humor & have fun at work! Thanks for doing these every year!

OK, I want my next instrument to have the inlays like this one, uninterrupted by those pesky frets.
