Wow! That is absolutely stunning. Congratulations Mark, well worth the wait. 'Patience' indeed. Next time I'm down in Yorkshire I'll figure a way to smuggle her out of your house. Looks like you'll be enjoying Christmas this year. All the best Graeme (Message edited by jacko on December 19, 2005) | ||

Love the inlays! To quote Graeme, Wow! I've got to learn guitar one of these days. What do you play it through? Congratulations Sam | ||

Congrats Mark!! Beautiful guitar - I absolutely love the birdseye - and the inlays are fantastic. Don't forget to come up for air from time to time. =) Tom | ||

Thanks guys. This is my first, so my feet won't touch down till some time in 2006, maybe! I've got a Fender Blues de Ville, 2x12 at the moment which has never sounded so sweet or so quiet. I never imagined a guitar could be this good. Elves indeed. Mark | ||

Very nice, Mark! I'd like to see more of those FB inlays...the phases of the moon, I'm assuming? Cheers, Kevin | ||

Looks like a Sativa to me, maybe a cross with a touch of Indica. I'm sure it has great medicinal properties that make anyone playing this guitar feel real good! LOL. Bill, tgo | ||

You're spot on there Bill, a touch of vibrato and a string vibrates forever, even unplugged! Having heard "Further No. 1" aka "the Wolf" back in 73, I had high expectations, but Jerry didn't have Alembic Activators in his, so this sounds better. Shame I don't have his technique! LOL How's you're beauty coming along Bill? Must be nearly there surely. Mark, still flying | ||

I hoped she'd be a featured custom. Here's Mica's vastly superior pics. 10 months on and still in love! Mark |
