New commission, Coco jumbo

[Steve Kinnaird]

Can't believe I started this over 5 years ago

Well, as I had mentioned, this guy disappeared over 4 years ago, so it HAS been on the back burner but I do have a show coming up over Labor Day, and this is an easy one to give me another new guitar to show.

That fellow will probably attend the show, and say "I wondered when you'd finish this..."

Or that's how it would go for me, anyway...
Great looking guitar, by the way!

Dan, G - I really like the lines on this one!

Strung up last night and initial setup done this morning.







Just need to trim and polish the nut, then ready for the show this weekend.

I should mention again that this is from the huge cocobolo logs I bought in 2004. Really tight straight grain, pretty much looks like some of the old BRW from back in the day. Think I ended up with around 150 board feet or so of that stuff.

Hey, that looks really good on my couch!

Nice to this one done, Grant. Does it sound as great as it looks?

[Dennis Leahy]

Beautiful, Grant! This should sell quickly (but don't give it away! It has a $300 Cocobolo set.)

Just wondering. Is this guitar still around> I'll bet it sounds great by now.

Yes, I still have it, Tom. We will be playing it this weekend at stringfest.
