Hey Ron. You are sounding just like the good old days when you amazed us with all of your guitar builds :D I feel better already from your enthusiasm.

Welcome home.

Hey, and I am going to be seeing the guy from the big timber company here who has promised me all their really big white spruce trees. I will make sure to save some harp sized billets.

Hey Ron,

Good to have you with us, you were sadly missed from the other forum so it is like old times in a new and better house :D
Cheers

Heeeeyyyy Ronnn!

Welcome aboard, neighbor. I am sure glad you were able to make it over here! I like your latest Harp! Hope you got a chance to view my 10 string posts. Here is a close up of a head plate I am working on of Zebra wood with Herringbone and a Meander strip down the center. I still have the extra long giraffe bone nut and saddle I got from you and will try cutting that stuff to fit this build. Thanks, Ron and glad you decided to join the rest of the guys who migrated over here.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Doesn't fit? Get a bigger hammer.
