Hi to you all,
Its been a while since I posted a guitar here. This one named RUBY is an all Tasmanian Blackwood Weissenborn Copy. She is lightly braced and has the big foot print bridge plate. Tone, sustain is the best I have built yet. It has been voiced as Baritone tuned instrument and is in open C. I sat down for a play last night and found my licks had disappeared. It is going to be a pleasure to get them all back again. Here are a few pics and thanks for looking.

hey alan,

thats the one with the nice taptone, if I remember right?
good to see you got to finish her, and that she sounds good
definitely worth it...

btw. how's the miniMaton coming along?

Looks very sweet Alan.
I am sure Ruby will help you will find those missing licks again in no time.

Nice classic look to that one Alan.

That's a real stunner. I bet it sounds great too.

Hi Josh,
I'm happy with the tone and it needs time to be played in. I will do a sound sample later on. The mini maton copy is ready for finish. Workin on the OM finish at the present. Look after yourself.
Thank you Kim, Martin, Mark, Bob and Jeremy for your comments.
See you in a couple of weeks Bob.
Cheers
Alan

Nice looking guitar Al - well done
