Did you design the body shape yourself? I really dig the design and how it allows for great upper fret access.

Yeah...I'm not into just wrapping tape around a guitar and calling it a "build".

I had to pull it apart first and then reBUILD it.

Sorry, I didn't check the rules.

Peter, your guitar work is amazing. I've always really loved it. But your inlay work is the best I've seen.

Do you typically use nitro or poly for the finish? It is outstanding.

all nitro,
I use an oil based grain filler for the mahogany, Ruskins brand out of the UK..
its not bad, but I still need around 20-24 coats to get the finish I need..

Thanks for the kind words on the inlay, but I'm just a novice compared to guys like Larry Robinson and Grit Laskin... those guys are true artists..
my drawing skills are not there yet.. but gotta keep practising hey?

working on putting thick rosewood binding on one right now and it is an absolute exercise in patience to get around those horns!

Pete you're hands down the best luthiers on this forum. So many people talk the talk and big note themselves but damn man you produce the ****ing goods.

That is one fantastic koala.

And I totally love the "koalawood" top.

Building a goldtop, nice single piece of birdseye, that will unfortunately get covered in gold,
but it will make a great top.
the inlay is the Japanese symbol for gold, in gold MOP..

What iron did you get?
I just ordered a Weller 40W.

Nothing fancy. 48W temp controlled station.
