Post by: bordelloguitars on June 29, 2014, 06:50:08 PM
Here they are - newly arrived and ready to go into the Custom Guitar Builder later this week........  http://bordello.guitars/category/442/Custom-Guitar-Builder

All stunning I hope you agree, and will make for a great guitar top....  I like them all, but would be interested to hear your favourite?

They look great.   8)

The Claro Walnut does it for me, can only imagine how that'll look when finished, superb patterning and colours.  Hopefully you'll post a pic of it when used.  ;)

Redwood Burl. That looks awesome. Having said that, I look forward to seeing what you do with all of these :)

Both good choices  :tup:  I guess though the question should be, what would you do with them??  8) they will go into the Guitar Builder as one-offs... once they are selected, they are gone!  (I will definitely be posting these when they are done... can't wait to see how they will turn out myself)
