As I have said before, you seem to work fast! This one looks great. What woods have you used?

Thanks! Each one takes me about 2 months, I just happened to have a few finished at about the same time this time.
Woods are as follows:
Soundboard: European spruce
Body and pegbox: Light meranti
Neck and pickguard: Zebrawood
Fingerboard: European Sycamore and London Plane (AKA Lacewood)
Bridge: (stained) European cherry
Pegs: Boxwood

Usually E2, A2 A2, B2 B2, E3 E3, A3 A3, D4 D4, but the two lowest courses are often tuned as per the player's preference. The top 4 are normally always BEAD though.
