Organic. That's what Tom kept coming back to when describing this guitar. The rich, peat and earth color of the top wood, its figuring
melting down the body, and how the straighter grain of the fingerboard just seems to sprout forth and grow, are reminders that yes,
the materials that form this guitar were living. That it's a tribute to a loved part of Tom and Jane's family, their wonderful
German Shepard Cosmic Glow (or Cosmo for short), makes that organic connection
ever more personal.
When designing this instrument, Susan, Tom, and Jane discussed at
length how to properly memorialize Cosmo. Certainly the wood choice to remind of the colors, a small carved Heart Omega to
signify the love shared, and the custom inlays to have a literal and an abstract representation.
