Really nice work Jeff.....

Thanks Martin

Excellent stuff Jeff, even through cruddy laptop speakers both of these have character. I'll listen when I'm at home through a better sound system. Nice tidy workmanship too.

As Nick said, they sound good through the laptop so I bet they sound killer in person.

G'day Jeff,

Both guitars sound rich and full through my headphones.

Beautiful workmanship, all class mate.

Cheers

Alan

I've heard both in the Flesh , even before Jeff had got them to the stage where he was 100% happy with them , and they sounded great , Jeff's first go at the Falcate bracing and side weights and he hit a home run , and they looked pretty good as well.

Cheers,
