Beautiful--one of my favorite recent ACGs! The dual veneers under the top are subtle and elegant, and I really like the look of the dark (mac ebony?) headstock overlay.

 

[Skelf]

Wenge headstock veneer. Very pleased with this one I really like the look of it and it sounded really good as well. I am getting to grips with the 03 it is a big step up from the 01.

 

[loopee]

that's a nice one.....love the look of myrtle and my myrtle/mahogany/wenge bass sounds really good too

 

[Jared Lash]

Love that one and have been keeping tabs on it from the beginning.

I love the dual veneers. Maybe my favorite ACG yet.

Beautiful, but that goes without saying!

In many ways I feel sad that most people won't get to see the back - it's a work of art.

Myrtle and mahogany sounds like a winning combination. I know TBer emjazz is a big fan of that setup.

Neat how much different pieces of myrtle vary. I like the shimmer of the walnut bodied Recurve double cut and the subtlety of the top on the single cut. Both work well for their application.

And what a gorgeous walnut top on that Recurve S type.

Alan,

How easy do the piezo saddles adjust/intonate when compared with the standard metal Hipshot A style saddles?


Thanks,
Bryan

Bryan,

If they're like the RMC piezos on my Curbow, there's no difference at all. They're just like regular saddles, except they have wires attached....

Thanks Mike. I'm actually interested in the RMCs also.

Hi
Exactly what Mike says.

Thanks. Is it just as easy to intonate the ghost saddles on the Hipshot headless that you made for yourself? Can you intonate the piezo saddles without having to take the strings off of the saddles?

I'm not disagreeing!
