This is one of the best I have ever seen I wish I would have gotten pictures of the top because it was beautiful too but the quilt on this back just blew me away! The neck isn't too shabby either I love a flamed maple neck!

Credit where it's due! Some things can be too nice though...I'd be afraid to touch that thing let alone play it
 
Almost too coffee table...but it gets a pass. A lot of tiger stripe similar are too much for a guitar.
 
Was this the same guitar posted over at TGP? From what I had read, they said that top on this was really plain? Did they end up posting pics of the front of it? If it really is plain, seems like a waste to use wood that pretty on the back, and then cheap out on the front. LOL

Yep that's it I couldn't remember where I got the picture from but I was just amazed by the beauty. And I also would be afraid to touch it and play it or get any type of buckle rash on the back of that I guess I'd only play it in sweats LOL! My good friend that built my Les Paul is a huge critic on wood top backs everything and he even said oh my God
 
I prefer a plain top but that is a striking piece of wood.
 
i definitely got lost for a few minutes looking at the grain patterns.
