CONGRATS! I'll have to agree with Johnny on that one. Beautiful Andrew, and worth the wait. |

Muzza, I could probably better explain in emails, as I'm afraid that might be a bit more "religious" type talk than would be appreciated, but suffice it to say it's not what it's called, it's how and why you use it.
Steve, love the picture! I'll actually be up at the booth all day tomorrow and Sunday...you did realize that was my business, right?
Crimson, the "light patch" is called sapwood, as in striping from closer to the center of the log as I understand it. A lot of more figured woods are being cut with sapwood strips for cosmetic effect, and I assume to get more use out of the log. I've seen some real beauties lately. |

I thought it was funny that I found your baked goods after seeing your guitar pictures the same morning. I think I've seen your booth before but not made the connection. I don't think we'll make it back over to Mount Vernon this weekend. The marionberry bread is good- not too sweet- I'm going to have some more for breakfast!

Location: Chehalis, Washington | Okay, so is it sad that seeing 75 and sunshine, my first impulse is to pull out the guitar and camera?
Here's some pics that show a little more "true" tones of this beauty.
And of course, I couldn't help putting two of my girls together...
