And now for something completely different

Not really but slightly different.
This is what was originally the Jimmy D'Aquisto inspired modern sound hole guitar. That definitely wasn't working sound wise. So I retopped it with a Big Bouche (thank you to whoever came up with that) top. And for various reasons it ended up blue. It's the first time I've ever dyed wood...I think it looks pretty damn good. I'm calling it "Blue Burst". There's some amber in there.
I still need to finish the neck but I thought you all might like seeing it in progress.
I'll turn this into a classified when it's done.
Apologies for all the self promotion....

The back and sides look stunning!
yeah this old guy retired and donated all this beautiful wood to me including a ton of this maple. It's crazy beautiful stuff.
Wow, that looks fantastic. The beauty of the woods still fully comes through. I'm not a fan when the wood is completely masked. I'm a fan of this one.
And what a good fortune to inherit a stash of wood like that.
