Beautiful! I love the tartan and the custom rosette

Thanks Trent,
I looked all over for a piece of the right Tartan, had to be Gordon Clan Dress Tartan. After a week or more trolling the Internet, I showed my wife, and voila! she had a piece in amongst her patch work material.
And now it's in the headstock.
