I love using Honduran Rosewood. It rings like a brass bell, and the color is just so rich. This paired with curly Jarrah bindings and ebony. Scale is 20" and has a K&K Aloha Twin installed. Rubner machine heads and finished in high gloss polyurethane.

As always it looks amazing. I really like the very fine purfling on the sides and of course the way it sweeps past the arm rest.
 
Lovely wood... Here is what the wood database says;

Comments: Honduran Rosewood is known for its acoustic properties, possessing an excellent tap-tone, making it well-suited for acoustic guitars, xylophone keys, and other acoustic musical instruments.
 
Stunning - as always.

I'm pretty pleased with that line now too. This was the first one that I eased that transition and while just a small amount of material needs to be removed, the difference to the look is huge.
 
Nothing I can add, Allen, but dang! You continue to set the bar really, really high.
