If you DO get the crazy urge to sell, contact me.  I'll either talk you out of it or buy it.

I think you may have enough H22 Basses.  These things are getting pricey - I cannot afford that mistake again.  Food will always be more important though so you never know.

;D...I may have been partially responsible for some of that, even though I've paid less and less for them since buying #1.

Thanks, Dave.  Customer doesn't wants to leave it unfinished, should be interesting.

That's an appropriate name! Looking good.

Now there's a good looking piece of crotch walnut. No problem to take a long look at either, unlike some other crotches.

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

G8R Eighter for the USA and Oz bound ebony board NR (courtesy CITES).



Headstock about done.



This vacuum pump came with my Onsrud pin router in 2010.


I bought two bookmatched 5A flame maple veneer sheets about three years before that.  Might be time to put them both to use.



I've always loved the look of Joe's (chromium) Hamer.

Looking good!

Those 12 string necks look very interesting.

Double truss rods are something one doesn't see very often.

Thanks,

Hamer started using them when they were having problems with their multis.  Dean and others also use them on 8s and 12s.

Some use them on fivers which is completely unnecessary IMO.
