Nice looking koa is always hard to work and this was no exception. I bought the board back in 2010 on ebay for about $1000 and it has yielded 13 sets... I've got 5 left. Very loud and I have no idea why. Koa is very interesting for its complete variety.



This is for Tobin

Woohoo!

Simply gorgeous. And as much as I can tell from the video, it sounds fantastic. I am actually at a loss for words. This next week may be one of the longest in my life :drool: !

Thanks a million, Pete.

Thank you. This will be my first very nice tenor. I haven't seen it in person yet, and I'm already delighted.

Really pretty instrument. I could tell it was just off the stocks with all that string hanging off and the big grin on the builder. Or was that Jake playing?...
