@scotty Wow that’s a tremendous amount of work but very worthwhile for the effect. I’ve seen something similar done on a smaller scale using pencils/coloured crayons. I can imagine that the prospect o...

Hi Scotty, I think your father in law will be a very proud man when he gets that beautiful guitar. I love the body, can you tell us how you achieved the pattern? You’ve obviously put a lot of time and...
