Thanks for the post. It has been a sunny day with 70 degrees F, the 7:th that is.  Bird tailpiece exactly in the middle:

While starting to write this message the time here is 11:25 am. Most of You in America have probably gone to bed.
 
This is just exquisite. First the flame walnut at the top and then a layer of maple and a purpleheart pinstripe and finally the mahogany at the back of the body. So beautiful.
