Just got her yesterday. My friend thats a luthier built this for me. I didnt want the hardwear aged, it will age on it's own. I dont have the volume tone pointers yet, he couldnt find them and I didnt want to wait for them, I'll get those later. 30+ year old wood. Eastern maple top, 1 piece Honduran back, Brazilian fretboard, dead quartsawn Honduran neck, Holly headstock veneer, long tenon, vintage style truss rod. Handcarved 50's style dishing. Ultra thin nitro finish. I went with WCR Godwood Darkburst pickups. I've owned hundreds of guitars over the years and this is the 1st that was handmade for me. It's hands down the nicest guitar Ive ever owned.
 
LOL, I was expecting to see a build thread the way it started, then BOOM!! Finished guitar. Nice!!
 
Very nice! She play like buttah? All these sexy LPs lately...Gonna have to pick one up soon.
 
Killer! Can we see some pics of what happened in between these photos?
