Beautiful OM and what a great pair of guitars you have. I love the rosette w/ the diamonds and the purfling choice you made. I also do darts on all my necks and want to try something different but just really love the look of it. It flows from the headstock into the neck the best and is natural to cut with a chisel.
Mahogany backed OM's are the stuff! I was told by the guy who bought my OM build that it makes his perfect and beautiful all Koa Taylor sound muted. Mine are far from perfect but the real compliment is that he plays mine every day.
They all sound great and different. Don't let people tell you what they think. Just build em and play em. No words can describe them. Each one is my favorite when I'm playing it, I can't ever decide which is the best. My 0 size guitars surprise everyone with how much sound comes out and how responsive they are. They are small but mighty.
Thanks for posting the thread. I enjoyed it.
2nd kit?
