Not fair having shiny insides! Kym Blame Martin! His African B'wood is French-polished and it's amazing. Only gonna do this once, so... Anyway, I covet the Sapwood skunk stripe on your Spira!

I am a HUGE fan of those marquetry rosettes ... simply stunning, Alasdair! I'm getting excited for you, too!

Your own build going well, I trust? Indeed it is ... and davewhite is very good at updating via his website... lost of pictures which, being in no way 'crafty' myself, mean very little but show things happening He's also got vicov's Sparrowhawk and marcyrick's Bealtine on the go, too ... all very exciting!

Yup, I just had a quick look. Coming along nicely. I'm looking forward to trying Dave's guitars at some point - maybe at Halifax. Maybe we should all meet up and pace up and down smoking like expectant fathers...

Actually, just noticed the subtle and very appropriate (sticky tape) product placement in three of those pics! Excellent!

Keith I've noticed that previously in other Taran WIP photos, not sure if it's deliberate or just a coincidence of workshop location. I'd happily give that tape dispenser house space.

Pittenweem is not on the way up north, maybe I should pop in anyway when these are finished, very nice looking guitars...
