Here's the new Philly in the herd. Cedar top and Koa back and Sides. The Cedar has close to 43 growth rings to the inch. Brian cut a section out of a log over 50 years ago, estimated to be close to 1,400 year old it was felled about 100 years ago. Very nice sound but the cedar is soft. Got a few scratches already. Took it to David Newton and he cut the nut down and installed a plastic pick guard. The neck is mahogany, and it's big, like a 1957 Gibson Les Paul neck, but i am getting used to it. Will post some sound samples.
