Hesh your like a mini factory. Beautiful even for a Dred-Not I love Honduran Rosewood. One of the nicest tonewoods available. If your running out of room for all these guitars you can leave one or two in Fort Erie.

You have a lot to learn about marriage
"Lacey made you shampoo the carpets"   Huh!!!!!!!

Remember the rules....

You were honored to shampoo the carpets!!!!
You actually did this without asking!!!!!
You anticitpated this, because they were a bit dirty and you took it upon
yourself to clean them!!!!!

I'm curious about your bracing scheme??? I want to get in to making D size guitars for bluegrass players. Did you work off plans or develop your own bracing scheme?

WOW - you are an animal Hesh

Great job on the dread. Are you building full time now?? You seem to be knocking them out one right after another. I wish I could quit my day job but can't afford the pay cut at this stage in life. Look forward to retirement - hope I have fine tuned my skills by then and show quality results like this one.

Hesh, nice on this one, I am sure the next will be even better! By the way I like Dreads, even though they get a fair amount of fun poked at them by many.

Great Work Hesh
   I really like the overall look and the workmanship. Very clean. Heshtone is just cool for a logo.
   What kind of bleach did you put on those bindings? Was that Michael Jackson bleach? I mean it went from dark brown to Ivory.
