I hope it didn't make a big rift in your marriage, but man that is beautiful!! Scott's guitars are just plain classy. thats a piece of art, I would be afraid to bring it anywhere. You did good Bro, Jboy

That is one sweet lookin' piece. Wow!

<drool>

Awesome!! That looks amazing.

Talk about the sacrifices parents have to make...couldn't play it because the baby was asleep!!! That must have been brutal! Jonesin' for a guitar like that for months while it's being built and then having to wait to really crank it up...You sir are a very good father...and a lucky man. Congrats.

hummina hummina hummina....beautiful man

Nice guitar!!!!! very cool. I hear you about being able to play, I just got a new guitar early in the week but due to my situation I have plugged it in only to test that it works. Other than that I have played at least 2 hours a day on it unplugged! Ouch!

SA - WEET!

I didn't have to wait months for it. Impulse buy off ebay, the price was obscenely low, so I grabbed it. Here are some more pics:

NICE, congrats.
