Another guitar is headed to its new owner. This one was a nylon stringed 14 fret that plays and feels like a steel string. The new owner will be using it as a gigging guitar, so I installed a LR Baggs Stagepro Anthem system in it, and Its a great sounding pickup. Guitar Specs: Top: Curly Redwood (RC Tonewood) B&S: EIRW (RC Tonewood) Neck: Spanish Cedar (RC Tonewood) Bracing: 1937 Herman Hauser (Adapted to my Session model shape) Inlay: Dragonfly (Myrtlewood, Koa, & Abalone) all hand made by me. |

It's shiny, has a cool dragonfly, and looks like a guitar. A success! I really like the bridge. The nitro looks great... |

Nicely done! And a very interesting choice of using nearly all steel string "look" to a nylon string guitar. |

Very nice!!! What did you use for fingerboard widths @ the nut and 12th? Planning a crossover Nylon myself and just curious? Kerry |
