Really nice work, Mike. Here’s to the next 20. 
🙂🙏🎸🎶

Wow @mikeyrjiom – stunning looking work.
As Koen says, tell us some more about it and your builld approach.  8 (nearly 9!) acoustic builds in that period of time is impressive too, what are you doing with them all?

@mikeyrjiom
I really like that 3 legged logo thingy

Are you from the Isle of Man.

 
@mikeyrjiom
I really like that 3 legged logo thingy, is it an inlay?
Great job on that guitar, tremendous!

@mikeyrjiom Wow! ‘Nice job’ would be an understatement. 

What paints and lacquer did you use? 

I wanted to ask the same question 🙂

Great Stuff @mikeyrjiom. Nice and even across the body.  
🎶🙂🎸🙏

@mikeyrjiom Wowza! Stellar! Just freaking immaculate! Amazing!
