Stunning! Very cool wood choices.
You say that's an oil finish? Like tung oil or something?Yes, many, many layers of Formby's Tung Oil.

She's boxed up today!
SpaceYrface43 has been very patient... I know it's been well over a month "o) Finishing the Wenge gave me some trouble, it was my first experience with it... but she's done, and sounds fantastic.
Thanks Justin, and enjoy!

The wood choice turned out to be a very nice combination, not only looks, but it sounds really nice. Very crisp and clear, but not brittle. I'll be making others with this combination of woods, or something very similar, for sure...

Stop it!! Stop posting pics of this beautiful instrument. It's aggravating my GAS - making me stare at that nice block of flamed Koa sitting on the shelf . . .
Nice work!! My guitar is holding up nicely and I've been alternating sets with my Wolf they make a nice pair.

For general information, I should mention, the weight of this guitar is 11 pounds exactly (given my scale), with no hollow bits, completely solid.

Brian,
I just wanted to thank you for building this beauty for me, I am looking forward to getting her in my hands. Monday can't come soon enough !!!! I would like to put up some audio clips just need to figure that out. I just recently found out how to post pictures so video will be next.
Thanks Again.
