I only did about 15-20% of Rachel's guitar. She had all the design ideas (stars, S-curve on peghead, fingerboard end, and tailpiece). She carved the top, cut the Star soundholes, did the bracing, did the neck (except the inlay on the peghead), and the sides complete. I did the back, the tailpiece, the bridge, the nut, and the finish. She would have done it all, but had to go back to school.

Nice work, this is a really sharp looking guitar. The inlay work is nice. I especially like the neck work. How does it sound with the f hole like stars you put into the face?
Thanks for the good word!
The general consensus is that the f-hole openings create a "brighter" tone.
