Very Nice Zdenko.

I really like your choice of binding with that maple. And Eben is right, that curl is popping right out atcha with only the sanding sealer. It's goin to look real nice I think.

Z,
That looks great/ Your Brother is a lucky man. I wish my brother built guitars. :D

Do you seal with system 3 and then put on the sanding sealer?

Thanks,

Lefty

Hey Z!

That baby is beautiful! The Cherry binding was a very artistic choice (even if it was all you g=had on hand), and compliments the Maple with a great tone-on-tone look and feel. Well done!

Hi Z

I've just been catching up on this build, It sure is a class act. I like your attention to detail.
