Hi Paul,

That looks great! Is that ebony binding?

Thanks,
GregL.

[ozwood]

Hi Greg,

Thanks, No it's ABS I hate ebony as a Binding, it's hard to bend, get in the top wood when you sand and is just generally unpleasant to use, so ABS gives the same look , but without the headaches.

Cheers,

[GregL]

Hi Paul,

Well, the ABS looks great! So is the veneer on the back of the headplate ABS too? It looks good whatever it is!

Thanks,
GregL.

Hi Greg,

No that's the real thing!.

I just have an aversion to Ebony binding., Otherwise I always use timber.

Cheers,

Thanks Gents,

Yes Nick that's Tusq or In the black color it's called Graphtec.

What a great looking guitar - I am a great fan of florentine cutaways.

[Kamusur]

There's a lot to like about this one Paul, very clean and tidy on the inside as well.
